Wasted

Black out-wasted on you 
Destroyed and enchanted 
You never see what you do 
that  blood is yours

Your retched grime and dust 
Slowly engulf the  heart 
Carving a delicate line ..
Yet  never take  it apart 

Feather kissed scars 
Like a smiling warrior
You will never win the battle
I control the war

Hi, It's okay but rather deep.

Even with a mixed rhyme vehicle, you find a way to be powerful and effective...You leave an ominous warning to your reader...One of your strongest lines: Feather kissed stars Power ending...Good to see similes make a come back...Overall a great effort and a successful one.
