Drawing a circle around this black life,
a soul bleeding from memories of shards.
Broken words tossed into a toilet of dreams,
burning my tongue in an amber fire.
Becoming a hideous creature that breathes poison,
murky voice whispering vain words of displeasure.
Freezing catacomb to find salvation in,
Chained to a crumbled wall of hatred.
Flying into a vortex of onyx flames,
empowered with a desperate passion to burn to death.
Soured tears fall triumphantly to a hungry floor,
Razor blade burns on my throat allows the wine to pour.
