Welcome
Welcome, to my heart of darkness
Welcome to my heart.
Pure as the black of night,
There are no guards to stop you,
Simply because I will consume you.
In the end it does not matter what you do,
The moment I laid my hands on you,
You became mine.
To do with as I please.
Within my grasp,
My hands curl around your neck.
I tighten slowly, cutting your breath short.
You resist me seeking to live.
But you are scar'd with self inflicted wounds.
Many times you have drawn a blade upon your skin.
Pushed it down and let the blood flow.
And here I stand to end your pain
But still you fight against me.
You claw at my eyes barely able to even see,
It's all falling to black.
Slowly fading away as the blackness takes you.
What do you think at this moment?
This last moment of warmth,
But what does it matter now?
Soon you will lay lifeless within the deep.
So why fight.
Is there something worth living for?
So why are you running?
From all those that would give you the world.
But here is the truth.
You are not within my heart.
This is your own.
And so I let you free of my grasp
I watch as you breath slowly.
Still you cling to life.
Even within this darkness dreary,
There is a light all your own.
You bury yourself in your own grave by simple action.
I will make no claim to perfection.
So why would you need to be?
You need not claim to be anymore than you are.
I'll be here waiting for you.
