Dissociation

Look down deep into the soul Beyond the eyes so pure and bold Waterfalls of tears they've cried They were shed and now they're dry Ever so deep those words of gold Until the evil she was sold Capture the jewel then make your escape Not forgotten is the wretched rape Inside and out nor one on one Too late now the deeds been done Cold and broken. So detached Going off to sea so close the hatch Brief respite found upon the shore Soaking it in as never before Capture it's essence for it won't be long Another storm then poof it's gone Smell the odor left in the air After the victim escapes the snare Scars from teeth knawing at the rope While that sacred of all places was groped Snap. You are no longer there The one with no conscience to care The inner voice of right and wrong Came and went like a song That was sung so soft and low Barely could you hear the wind blow But there as it came through the trees Without pretense or saying please A cold breeze of evil settled deep within And mingled among the contents of the lonely den
