THE DARK
Beginning to forget
The remembrance of Summer
The taste of her last kiss
Her embrace amidst the thunder
What have I done?
I cannot take
The cards I’ve been dealt
I do not want this Hell
You cannot give
What you took from me
I only see what’s in the dark
Oh God
I cannot see you
I’ll never see you
So dead in my heart
Goddamn
You cannot see me
You’ll never see me
So gone in the dark
Then in a flash of light
The dismemberment of Summer
Darkness consumes us all
And I stain my hands with murder
What have I done?
I didn’t mean to
To hurt you harms myself
I’m living death
And escaped the sun
Become hell in the dark
Oh God
I cannot see you
I’ll never see you
So dead in my heart
Goddamn
You cannot see me
You’ll never see me
So gone in the dark
PRAY FOR SALVATION
IN THIS DAMNATION
HERE AMONG THE STORM
IN TREPIDATION
feel myself changing
SOMEHOW FIND THIS HEART
THAT HAS TURNED TO STONE
FIND ME IN THE DARK
FORGIVE ME, KILL ME
I’M ALREADY GONE
pierce the night
with retribution flame
this suffering
JUST END THE PAIN
Why have you forsaken me, God?
Everything’s lost in madness
Fill the rivers with dismembered
Nothingness is what I’ve become
The remembrance of Summer
The taste of her last kiss
Her embrace amidst the thunder
What have I done?
I cannot take
The cards I’ve been dealt
I do not want this Hell
You cannot give
What you took from me
I only see what’s in the dark
Oh God
I cannot see you
I’ll never see you
So dead in my heart
Goddamn
You cannot see me
You’ll never see me
So gone in the dark
Then in a flash of light
The dismemberment of Summer
Darkness consumes us all
And I stain my hands with murder
What have I done?
I didn’t mean to
To hurt you harms myself
I’m living death
And escaped the sun
Become hell in the dark
Oh God
I cannot see you
I’ll never see you
So dead in my heart
Goddamn
You cannot see me
You’ll never see me
So gone in the dark
PRAY FOR SALVATION
IN THIS DAMNATION
HERE AMONG THE STORM
IN TREPIDATION
feel myself changing
SOMEHOW FIND THIS HEART
THAT HAS TURNED TO STONE
FIND ME IN THE DARK
FORGIVE ME, KILL ME
I’M ALREADY GONE
pierce the night
with retribution flame
this suffering
JUST END THE PAIN
Why have you forsaken me, God?
Everything’s lost in madness
Fill the rivers with dismembered
Nothingness is what I’ve become

There is always retribution for self-damnation, the mind needs to seek, and the heart must want it. Sometimes the darkness hides the visible scars what we do not want seen in the light. It comes down to balancing perceptions, conforming to what you become, is as simple as believing, willing it. Yet, when you begin self-questioning your morality, the mind is somewhat misplaced, thoughts become our mouthpiece, a meager scapegoat what our heart has festered. In life when you unify those characters of heart and mind which makes us who we are. It could become your greatest compassion, or when it has deviated from the norm, it could become your worst nightmare, please... enjoy your evening my poet

Diving deep into duality & damnation.
A tormented soul crying out to God in the same breath as cursing Him...like children, we all are to God.
NIce!
Enjoyed!
