RESPECT HER
-
She covered up my eyes, and then in
the blindness, took a piece of my
pierced flesh and tainted,
tattooed skin.
Crying like a fire
she left an eternal
trail of tear drops running
down to my sin, in sequence,
my desire, spreading
beneath my delinquency.
-
She flows and bleeds like a river
before she lets me begin.
Passing "souls-of-purity" sleep,
while my soul is taken.
-
Demons of steel laugh like ice
and adore the manner
in which she will kill.
Angels can stare and judge me
but will never know the way I feel.
-
Wishing there was a way
to dominate this fucking
hopelessness, this infinite
concavity. I now understand
the depths I reach are limitless!Advertisement
-
Lusting after a mode to transmit
the remedy
for this eclipse of my being,
my veins, my blood. ...
-
My light. My darkness
My disease. My comfort
My sweet infection, I am
truly impure.
-
Desperation versus hope for the cure.
