Crimson

what is this deep inside of me?
what is incubating in my unknown dismal womb?
this power, this force....growing darkness, silent beauty 'neath the catacombs
of my disgrace?
turmoil, apparitions of limbo disguised in hatred and the perseverence of life
after death.........
my insides ache to release this infernal demon, to allow it to enter my mind and
take over my body...

i approach my disgust and i receive a blatant vision....bequeathed to me by some
higher doom...
creeping into my eyes....flowing tears, crimson lust down my cheeks
i taste the rust inside my mouth....down my throat lies a nexus linked to the
new life

my blood boils as my fear grows stronger.....
explicit agony slices through my flesh like a wolf feasting on his prey
i scream.....i scream....so silently....i pray to awaken in a new day
i pray to wake up engrossed in barbed-wire...
shackled to the screaming walls of my most inner desire...

blood trickles out my pores......
my life is so succulently being sucked dry
this beast inside of me.....why do you cast me as your savior?
i am nothing...i am emptiness....ravaged scarlet fever bubbling in my
bloodstream

do you see me now? do you see my eyes - ablaze in time?
do you watch me now? do you hide in my shadows?
do you care for me? do you sink when you hear my silent cries....forever
embedded in silent strife?
i care for you now.....my black rose, so delicate and so precious...eternally
revered
the lust i have, i fiend for you.......and once i'm reborn i'm coming for
you.........

i'm coming for you........and i will end all your suffering.....deeply lit
within' my grace of perpetual agony
and at last.....i beckon for you....i hear my echoes ringing throughout the
cavern.......fruitless, joyless,
i recieve nothing.....and for that......nothing receives
me................................
