A Thousand Years

Frightening is the coat you wear
Fear is what lingers in your soul
Coward is your omnipotent despair
Cringing minutely in your endangered hole

I’ve left you to your canvassing shroud

Listened to your putrid screams out loud
Nothing can force me to devour that sickening pill

Pray to your God if it makes you complete
Throw yourself casually at its mercy
Forsaken is how I’ll meekly declare defeat

That protects you from disfiguring harm
Forged by its brightly lit rooms
Those conceal the ugly tarnished charms

All would be beautifully sought

Torturous is the sound that it brings
Knowing it will command my living breath

Passion is the way it will depart
Thru the putrid hole of my existence
Though I appear out of control
My collective is how I can predict this
