The words escape me
when I try writing them down
as if the art of poetry
has become a dead language to me

My inspiration
gone out like a light
leaving me alone
in the dark of night

My creativity
slipped out of my grasp
faded away
into the distance

I cry out into the shadows
begging for help
to restore to me my muse
to turn on the light

But my cries are mute
gone unheard
as silence takes over

So i can never write another word
You infectious parasite
you diseased my heart
I hope all this guilt
tears you apart

You played me like
a video game
and made me believe
the lies that spewed from your lips

Now my heart
is slowly dying
from the disease
you called your love

If you wanted me dead
you should have made it quick
instead of loving me
and making me sick
As we lay here
staring at the the stars
you seem so close
but yet so far

When our eyes meet
I try to confess
everything I feel
but its like you cant see
how you make my heart sing

I long for the strength
and the bravery to say
how much I need you
every single day

As we lay here
staring at the stars
you seem so close
but yet,



So far
Love me,
        Even if its wrong

Stand with me,
         Even if its hard

Fight by my side,
         Against all odds

Stay by my side,
         We can do whatever it takes

Come with me,
          Be my perfect mistake
Staring at the floor
slowly shuffling my feet
its finally that time
this is it

I look into your eyes
you can see it to
its time for me to go
my days here are through

I hope for you to tell me to wait
that you need me to stay
only we both know
its to late

I will be gone long
but not forever
oceans will separate us
you say to not forget you
but i could never

Those beautiful eyes
and the way you look at me
the softness of your voice
when you call out my name

This will keep me alive
my memories of you
no matter how few
will bring me back to you

Ill think about you
every moment im away
I pray youll do the same
and remember this

Im gone but not lost
My mistress the moon
calls to the beast within
she whispers to me
its my time again

My skin begins to rip
my new form pushes through
my bones bend and break
to form something new

Fur covers my flesh
claws push through my nails
dropping down to all four legs
im born anew

I howl into the night
the pack answers my call
we hunt until the morning light
all for our mistress the moon
I look into my eyes
All I see is the shell of a former man
All my faults are scarred across my skin
Bleeding from my eyes is the putrid infection of sin

I see the hands of my reflection
Reach from the mirror
Time begins to slow
I can see them getting nearer

I grasp the hands and get pulled into the embrace of a monster
I shake, I twist, I try to break free
In the end its impossible
I need to just except me

— The End —
