The waves of crimson tides crash upon a porcelain shoreline This isn’t the first time This isn’t the first time I cast my penance upwards And it shatters at your feet As the gavel strikes again and again Mercy turns a blind eye…why? The blood on my hands The knife in my heart Is the hidden blade behind my back Still Dripping with the blood of my self destruction A blood splattered oblation of all my fragile promises A final sunset Casts a shadow over the headstones of everything I’ve loved Seeking escape from something I can’t even remember Cyclical ritual surrender This isn’t the first time crimson waves crash again Again and again On fractured porcelain shores Filled with all the broken pieces Of the person I once was And to no avail; perpetually, I fail To put them back together Never, forever Again and again For the last time
