Locked jaw, mangled claws.
Ashes of empires, and loss of cause.
Where is God? Where is redemption?
Born to be an abomination.
Any breakthrough, is mere sensation.
Death, the way your bones escape your cuffs, as you reach out to me, like no one else.
Your twisted skull, grinning beneath your cloak.
Your sweet, skinless beckoning makes my heart jump, with hope of release of spirit, by release of blood.
Equivalent exchange.
The dark, deranged figure knows my name, but speaks, not a sound.
It speaks the language, only a soul can understand.
While mortals talk, the demon walks the walk.
Such beauty, in the one thing, I have always desired.
Silence.
It understands me, and I'll follow you into eternity.
Thank you, for saving me.
