Do You Remember 16-03-2017

Do you remember growing up in a broken home A neon past where depression roams Where happiness is nothing more but whispers in the storm and your sapphire eyes couldn't pierce my weakest form. Do you remember a thousand glisters on the lonely sea Where beauty and love were fabled to be, there the sun of your world slowly throttled and died, A broken mind that I myself have glorified. Now yield to me each night in bliss, All you do; is burn rivers on your wrist and at night cry yourself to sleep, For I am there, I'm the Devil that creeps. I'll never leave you alone... So if you die tonight, let it be known you were not alone, I was that murderous voice that sapped this dying faun. -It was not witchcraft why you have gone. "Temptation clad in silver Like the portrait above the lake A scar; a sole eroded river Leaves everything for this gull to take"
