Requiscate In Pace

I don't exist anymore Such was the way before Such it will be after I feel like light feather Blown in the dusty summer wind I close my eyes, seeing a mind Unlike any others, ideas impossible Concepts often sworn to be despicable Frankenstein, creature of horror That story rings deep into my core Monster, abomination, freak Slowly, it trinkles, a leak Of crimson and scarlet This fearful sole outlet That pain cherished In the walls blemished I lie, I deceive Sad, I conceive But, there is no other way... To keep this shame away... Loathing for my own self Such even words heartfelt Could not change in any shape Broken, looping, like a tape The Less Taken Path... and its Destiny When in this endless night I see lonely My own fateless wretched soul Dripping of stench, oh so foul I never asked to be this way, understood? In fact, I prayed against it as I stood Before the altar of the Merciless And at last, put myself to rest The melody of life Rhyming with strife Walking down at my own pace Singing requiscate in pace
