The Monster Within

Picking the black petals of my life  
casting them carelessy into the sea  
not giving a fuck  
   
it feels sublime letting go  
watching the sea foam absorb all hope  
the madness won't end so I sucumb  
   
the voices ringing in my ears  
such as Ted Bundy  
whispering me putrid secrets of death  
   
all the while tickling my fancy  
i'm a monster of the hoarde  
falling into their scorching embrace  
   
I protest to no avail  
my destiny before me  
I wither in their grasp  
   
mouth gasping for air  
as they take my faith and eat it as if it were candy  
falling forever falling into the pit  
   
calling to heaven but only finding hell  
deny your master they say with razor tongues
slashing me and appeasing me at once  
   
the devil's concubine  
with stars in my eyes  
evil to the core please heaven save me    
   
from the monster that lies within  
or I will perish forever  
Ted's little toy to kill for all eternity
