Nevermore
Slip your fingers slowly down my face
Blood dripping down perfect white lace
My eyes are seeping red
Onto cold, hard cheeks-dead.
Your gaze traps mine forevermore
Black gore bursts from my core
Lace darkens, the light is nevermore
Your sharp fingers beckon, tight smile is a lure
I blindly step forward, I have to see more
But your heart cannot take it, it bursts with a roar
I collapse onto skinless knees
Suck in suffocating air, release it with a wheeze
You shake and you cackle
Eyes on fire, a relentless jackal
You reach out a claw
Rip my soul until it's raw
I have nothing left, you have taken all
Yet your lips open in a silent, desperate call
Crimson tears crawl down my cheeks
Please, I do not know what it is you seek
But now your withering and wilting
Your dry bones are melting
I watch with a silent smile
My heart pounds, I know I am vile
My blood has stopped flowing
My dark eyes are dulling
You slip inside my skin
We are one now, the ultimate sin
The world has now frozen
It is us they have chosen
One in the same, maroon red chains
Never to escape, lost all that was sane
Eternal whispers of evermore
Sultry, sick voices...I am nevermore.
