Purgatory

Thine existence confirms/ The existence of Purgatory A vast contradiction to Reality and its’ paradoxes Blasphemous spirits compel me Thine own spirit is thus devoured Madness damning thineself with hunger Webbing thine subconscious with Crimson thoughts Into an already shattered existence Thine own thorned kiss confirms Oblivious to humankind/ A nature becoming Beastial Paradoxes disembowel reality Slaughtering the virginal lamb And leaving thine demon satiated And ne’er to fade Time hath no hold/ Cast no remorseful shadow O’er the skeletal moon Thy must only wait For Death to raise its’ withered hand Striking thineself mercilessly/ Until it Ends thine reign And thy cease to exist But until the ageless sun sinks away Into the aqua infinite abyss Thine inner beast shall rise And with it so shall fear Sweeping forth to consume the dreams Of the sleepers
