Taking Over Me

Taking over me 
I have loved him…, never wanted to take his life
But how could I? How could I stand the pain & coldness of death
Death…never thought it would come along 
Never thought it would come and take all my themes away
For I…, I thought my immortality would last
Would never be taken 
But I was mistaken, mistaken who to love
Who to stay with, you had took my life away
You had cause my death to soon 
You had took my perpetual life
With one simple needle, with one simple push
You have murdered my heart in vain 
I should’ve chosen you the moment it began 
You gave me something & now you’re taking it away
You gave me love, and then you regretted your passion
You gave me honor, and then you lowered down your word
You gave me power, strength, and immortality!
But I have misjudged; you are being ordered, being forced 
To take that from me, to rip me into shreds
To tear my life into simple pieces & throw them in the fireplace
I had to change him; to continue my breed
My love for you was stronger
But he had all greed
After my gift, he forwarded my death 
And pursed a blade in my shattered pieces heart
And I had took betray from both sides
And chose the one who had nothing to hide…
