Sweet Embrace

October 01, 2012 ---------------------- Listen to my words of sweet embrace Embrace the light of saving grace Grace I give to you, I lay down my life Life of mine I'll give to you, I'll take the knife Knife, thrown in unforgivable regret Regret scraping my heart, words said never to forget Forget the frozen truth of lies Lies poisoning the beauty, everything dies Dies...everything all just crumbles to dust Dust blown away in the wind, following nothingness-lust Lust cruel and deadly shading it's false glory in frosting Frosting-sweet, but ultimately sickly chills the blood forgive me what you can, what you will Will to move on, but I am stuck in my spill Spill my guts with nothing more to give-so you can see me bleed Bleed your heart with me as I lie dying Dying in an unchanging shame, sickly lying lying, hiding, the actual pain Pain no one really actually sees, their view obstructed by the rain Rain will melt away the ashes of regret Regret, but we'll all forget Forget me, forget what I've become Become what you were meant to be Be free of my darkened shadow of ugly death Death will follow where I go, I have always followed death Death surprises not what has already died Died I did long ago, when everything seemed to matter for naught Not to give away in futile dreams of fantasy bought Bought away I stumble into the pit of doom Doom caresses the fate of arrogant ignorance Ignorance flourishes in dead despair of faltered radiance Radiance emanating from the asses of the lying bigots Bigots riding freely, blinded by their own egos Egos inflated to suffocate; egos, egos Egos expanded until they crash Crash against the waves against the rocks they bash Bash the heads of the diseased rodents Rodents running free Take everything from me! Free yourself from the chains of the devil Leave me to feed his appetite of evil And run from what you cannot see Run away from me And finally be free

To die for love is an honorable cause, but an action leading to all pathways of hurt. Sorry for my random philosophical comments. I truly have been enjoying reading your work. Freedom shall reign! You express yourself without fear of being founded out. Awesome. Always, Laura
