Let Me Not Forget Again
It pours from my soul, this wretched waste of me
It fills the emotional basin, where you used to be
Stop I say to you, but you need hear me not
For all the feelings are poured out, and in emptiness I rot
Come I say to you, but you need hear me not
Moving down the bristly path, amidst your boiling pot
Steam so thick my breath is sunk and to my lungs it clings
I climb from this pit of hell, but fall again with broken wings
Screams I hear, come from those who bare no will
Laughter ignites, the fires rise, and more begin to kill
Listen I say to you, but you need hear me not
It is because I listened to you, God, I have forgot.
