Charms
Written by: lord_hade
wasting away in a volital pit
consuming the bugs that seem to keep me alive

they watch and laugh
as the moon runs and hides
could they just go away
could they just let me be

trust in them
and watch me fall away
they ask me if I'll join in their fun and games
I just nod and let it go

to keep myself alive
I've given up my life
converted to their charms
and left myself behind

falling forever
they see my ineptitude
for their failing bitter lies
they see a free-thinker among them

tie me to a cross
bleed me fully dry
let me hang until the life runs out of me
they don't understand that i died a long time ago

they watch and wonder why I do not shut my eyes
why I just hang there, silently awaiting
starving for the past that left me long ago
starving for a future that they tore away from me
