An Eye For An Eye, Says I
-there was something in your eyes.
a light.
a darkness.
a vaccum.
it shook me.
yet i did not yield.
ashes and dust.
Your name became
my season. now
my season has changed.
ashes and dust.
i tapped into
the blackest black.
that others fail to see.
this that i live for is killing me.
ashes and dust.
this is what i wanted.
this is what i want.
like a serpent you strike
defending your own.
leaving me for dead.
this is what i wanted.
this is what i want.
ashes and dust.
