Endless wander

What sin comes from oblivion
What righteousness comes from indifference
There is no iniquity, no hate, no darkness
Only the absence of truth
The son shall suffer the ignorance of the father
Bow down and let it fester
You wish to be my idol
A foundation of mistrust
You wish to be my god
A foundation of contempt
Show everyone wrong
Opposed to all logic
You shall conquer the world
I deny you
And yet I become the one thing I hate
Succumb and replicate
This unpromising path leads to nowhere
It ends here
No one shall follow after me.

Delusive virtue
05:13

Once sleepless to avoid nightmares
now wide awake with unwavering resolve
Yet I reside in loneliness
Misplaced on this soil
No rest until I hurt myself
No rest until I'm numb
A lonely cry
In a surge of anguish
I breathe despair
To defer my downfall
When my foundation collapses
What will remain
The last heave
Will take me away
To desolation
Away from everything I thought I knew
No safe haven in sight
Only a lasting breath of despair

Tired
I am so tired
Listless
Deprived of self care
A false smile is all I can temper
You hold on to me
You mirror my every move
Guided by my misery
Cloaked in a delusive virtue
I see my sorrow hurts you
It becomes you
The arrogance I feel
In contempt of myself
Egocentric
The sun revolves around the earth
In my petty state of mind
How can this be your future
Why am I standing by

Pure and virtuous. Untouched and frail.
A vague memory. Lost and forgotten.
The void left in place, it holds no meaning.
The amicable blessing of a caring mother, is all that remains, and will be remembered.

A welcome ordeal
05:14
|

Unwanted desires
A craving for a forgotten past.
I despise the weakness, sworn to chain my mind.
A carefree life is so close, yet I confine myself to this delusion.
Why must I hold on to that which breaks me.
Why must I hold on to that which destroys my sanctuary.
I hate myself for lying to you, even without words or actions.
You see right through me, and yet you remain so innocent.
You are my mortal deity.
I shall conquer my frailty for your sake.
Only I must bear the aftermath of my defeat.
A welcome ordeal.
This torment I must face.
For it shall scar me.
And you shall flourish.

You are
beauty
kind
Joy
adorable
elegant
generous
Your face is familiar
I see my echo in your beautiful mind
Our souls have bonded
Before we even met
You are
beautiful (as I am crude)
kind (as I am cold)
Joy (as I am misery)
adorable (as I am ugly)
elegant (as I am dull) ~
generous (as I am selfish)
Your face is intimate
I see myself in your beautiful mind
I have longed for this commitment
Before we even met
Who are you (Who am I?)
But an insignificant dog
Blinded by selfish guilt
Barely existing
Your core is shallow. (my core is shallow)
Cut your bonds (cut them, cut them now)
Before you succumb to this perpetual darkness
You belong here (I belong here)
Swine
Spectate on those who succeed
Absorb and envy
You are no one’s ghost
but a trespasser
Your spirit has no weight
Trapped in consciousness
You have failed her. (I have failed you)
Our time seems borrowed
Let me suffocate
I have longed for this commitment
Before we even met.
