Deadly Consent

Leading me to the cemetery In which you reside Descending further into your abyss Than I could have ever imagined If only Father time could take me back Erasing your memory Mending the scars Imprinted on my soul Leaving one less conquest For you to covet like a trophy Squashing your egocentric motives Before you rob me of myself again Striking a deal with Legion Freely walking into the darkness In which you thrive in And slowly die in Dysfunctional manipulation Redundant ramblings Your Modus Operandi For battering my soul Twisting reality Lying to your conscience Masquerading as a human Keeping up appearances Pretending to be anything But, the diabolical monster That lives to suffocate The innocence of love A game of charades Creating an illusion To comfort you From the haunting truth That you've been running from Choosing to rescue you From your self destructiveness Rather than using my ammunition To annihilate your very existence Consenting to my death Consigned there by only you
