Something

You being
Flawless is the remedy to my sanity.
This dim embrace you have upon me,
It’s what tells me your hopes are dead.
I yearn to let loose,
But this indistinct feeling holds me a slave to your glory;
I had my place in this world of disaster,
But that day when I discovered you impaired by emotion,
You accepted that you’d be abducted by me.

I’ve been alone for ten mournful centuries,
Filled with nights of endless violence and torment,
And loyal beasts bowed down before me.
I am the god, you are the enemy.
It’s how we met, and the way you have altered my existence,
That you’ve warmed my bitter heart and held it captive.
Will you never let go?

You being
Crimeless is the mixture to my confusion.
You tenderly trace coarse scars upon me,
It’s what tells me your trust is dead.
I desire to call truce,
But this imprecise sentiment holds me a slave to your beauty;
I had my place in this world of disaster,
But that day when I discovered you testing your faith,
You accepted that you’d be betrayed by me.

I’ve been alone for ten mournful centuries,
Filled with nights of endless bloodshed and torture,
And trusty fiends bowed down before me.
I am the devil, you are the enemy.
It’s how we met, and the way you have altered my existence,
That you’ve warmed my bitter heart and held it captive.
Will you never let go?

You being
Constricted by my arms thrilled a desire deep within me.
But it was when I felt your breath upon me and that blade crack through my chest,
That there was no more life within me. No more life to grieve me.
With one last breathe to exhale,
I whispered your name.

A final tear escaped your weary eyes,
As you watched me depart this life.
The rhythm of your footsteps descended over the horizon,
And I felt the bitter taste of death rise within me.
The flames of Hell soon embraced my body, and I was home again.
