altar

 
dire greed what do you make of me?
 
in my needful ways
secret desire speaks, utters a query
 
do you feel me?
 
I sacrifice the painful feelings
you adorn my thoughts
I hold you close then let you go
coming so close as to touch you  
then you say goodbye
 
in the eternal scorn I am alone
emptiness comforts the awkward girl I am
I confess I care more than I should
 
what does it matter?
 
hateful darkness knows my name
I am a sacrifiant of hope
calling your name in the void
it echoes off the loneliness within
 
my alter egos all say it will be okay but it won't, will it?
