From the ashes

How do I stop
Sinking my fangs
Into dying flesh
Rotten with neglect
Unable to feel
The inner flames

Broken rag dolls
Feed my appetite
Tie them to the floor
Of their existence
Dragging and crawling
Blinded with no light

A tortured soul
Sunk to the bottom
For vermin to feast
On the shattered pieces
Drowned in pitty
Stored in a bottle

How do I stop
When I see angels
Trapped with demons
Clutching the innocence
The light that Cradles
The person
That breaths
The same air
Of A world
Of the first breath
Ever taken

Hope
Dreams
Love
Happiness

I am not the answer
Only the cure
I will inhale your nightmares
A taste I cannot resist
I will pull you from your own dungeon
To a cage of chains
A palace for an Angel

Kneel to the new powers
Of what could be
The next time the world
World of ashes
The land of death you travelled
Feels you
The flames will be yours
To burn a path
Of happiness
Deserved in every way
