Here and now I must go
Into my unknown
Where the life I need waits

Skeletons of my own choosing
None worse than forgiving
I shouldve known better
I know how you are
Right down to the letter
Cowardice and Betrayel
Same story from the theme setter

dates back several thousands years...
even the Bible writers used it to inspire

performed it daily in the amphitheaters...

The faking of a smile
A pondering of a thought
The tear of an eye
A sound of weeping from afar
The trickle of blood running down my wrist
A readiness for the end
The conclusion that it wasn't worth fighting...

Wish i could shake this feeling of betrayel,
I'ts making me bitter and so so frail,
the security and devotion i once felt,

in the bitter cold of the night i shiver from head to toe

the burn of the chill paralizes me to the bone

i wrap myself in layers of guilt and self pity

choking on hatred and vengence

BETRAYAL
Absconded from the scene, but dying fast,
to seek a vengeance in a candle flame,
I whisper names as prayers, a spell is cast,
and goes about its deed--this is no game.

The power none believe is really there;

This time, this time I will succeed
Never again, never again will I let you rule me
A passage, a passage once hidden by treachery
You are, you are so blind to what I can do
The power, the...

And you expect

To understand

 tears flood my cheeks.
 My throat gets dry and scratchy. 
 The heavy raindrops come down hard upon me,

yes, poets are special people
they take the time 
to think of things
others would never dare
well, we may-
have a little trouble
paying our bills

corrupter of morals

Sold your tainted soul
Just to be able to harm my mind,
Wrap me in your sweet betrayel
Whisper me your spells that bind.

Oath-breaker
From the very start,
Kill the rest

Selfish from the...
