The Darkest of Hearts
The Darkest of Hearts
And you are...
yesterday's pleasantries
today's impurities
tomorrow's solace
And you are...
what you want the world to see
strength,
beauty,
power,
soul
And you are...
a fallacy,
a union of falsehood and indignation,
an ambassador of dereliction and delusion
And you are...
what you want the world to see
compassionate,
protector,
infallible
worshipper and lover of the most high
And you are...
one who defiles
the most sacred of trusts
a destroyer of inner peace
mocking the purest of hearts
And you are...
what you want the world to see
champion of causes
treasurer of grace
master of the ethereal
enchanting and desirable
And you are...
the angel of deceit
pretentious and poisonous
inebriated in repugnance
disheveled and insignificant
And you are....
