Demon

I can feel you falling away
As I fall apart in the dark
Waiting for your return that shan't ever come
For you died of a shattered heart.
Taking my soul to the hell that you rule
Awarding it as if a trophy of a quest
You miserably succeeded, I a mere fool
Lying frozen and forgotten in this chest.
Tears forever staining my bones with despair
Dead or alive tortured by your memory
Reeling with the scars you left, deemed unfair,
Why, my aching heart asks, do I still love my enemy?
Torturing my sights by day, haunting my nightmares by night
Singing a tune of love's destruction
Ripping it from my all too lonely sights
Leaving a microscopic inscription
Upon my wounded heart's scars
Unable to be read but rather felt
As I try to love again so indescribably hard
Saying that I found a way to get lost in you,
And I can't find my way back...
But I find hate and distrust so true
So strong that maybe it's enough to pull away....
To rid myself of the demon I love.
Poison seeping through my lips
Barbs on the tip of your tongue
Bleeding me from the inside with one kiss
A deadly love I can't escape from
Glass shards intertwined in your hair
My fingers knotted within, punctures dance over my hands
A nightmare I am willing to share
In exchange for my life... There is no chance...
And of this demon, beautiful and horrible, I shan't ever be rid of...
