Untitled

To the god of heaven
and the hosts of hell,
I never knew peace
For I am under your spell,
Letting out an eternal yell
Sacrificing the clarity of my throat.
Ancient blood letting upon my flesh.
The darkness enraptures me
Kissing my ghastly eyelids with
A nightmare inducing slumber
Though wide awake
Enduring a multitude of sorrow,
Heavy lies the crown of decay
A premonition on this day,
Set the stars in disarray
Facing death by the month of May.
I pleaded for relief
But knowing God is knowing profound
Madness,
Seeking the devil is seeing widespread
Destruction,
I can no longer function
Intertwined with the sacred and profane,
No longer playing their games,
To be free from both, is my destiny.
