Snap Dragon Snap

your voice, Sharp!
glistening like a razor
snap dragon, snap
I feel your words
as they pierce my flesh
biting into my heart
with a demonesque viciousness
bleeding screaming consciousness
I cry a thousand tears
crying for my lost love
the woman you used to be
not this beast I feel clawing away inside of me
and those eyes
the ones of my little angel
who looked to me in need
I remember the first time I looked deep
when you were just a girl on the verge of womanhood
scared at what the future held for you
for us
but now! look at those eyes
blackened by hatred
so evil! I feel as though I am staring at the devil herself
what is you want from me?
my heart?
you already took that
my soul?
I gave that to you years ago
my life?
beating away in the rhythm of time
covered in dust of forgotten memories
our love lingers in a labyrinth of heartache
slowly dying
with each word that bites my soul away
