incinerate

 
deeply kept hidden inside the mania
my neediness emerges
lies whispered on the wind connects the dots
insidious want chokes my innocence

I am vulnerable within my desire for knowledge
I must experience everything first hand
a fascination with the taboo
macabre folly flirts with danger

a misfit of the dark arts I myself captivate
the darkness comes closer to take a look
at the odd girl with understanding
within the ancient tomes my name is scribbled

engraved on the tongues of men parables of pain
inflicted upon my soul
the universe watches with a great eye
taking note of my comings and goings

sending in the unexpected
to watch me rise or fall
according to my becoming

is this my last revolution in this realm?

will the void claim its own?

I seek asylum in the light

I wonder do I belong?

I will learn yet remain the same
darkness becomes me I know
I incinerate the guilt
donning my sins a fine garment
intrigue is its own reward
