I hear, there is no caring just lingering thoughts Of what it's believed to never have been Still your demons awakened my own As i fulfilled my promise to give you all that i could
The evil surfaced in acid burns on the soul, Your sulfur dragons born of barren dreams Spewed fire that licked my flesh clean And as you consumed the charred bits of my essence I experienced the kind of freedom Birthed in a place I never wanted to be
Relinquishing so much of my past, my pain To have you grow stronger As I dig my nails into my own flesh To crawl out of the shadows I, myself, created
And I hear your gentle voice whisper vile commands The hint of an evil smile as I dutifully acquiesce Claimed in the darkness found in the corners of daylight I kept my promise And you claimed me Mind, body, and soul
When my demons were quelled As you slay them As you bashed them into submission My knight, in empty armor My heart, now unbound, became full
Perhaps you believed that my heart would feed your own But your heart turned to ash The last time it loved Still, your monsters were hungry And my heart was full
You held me in the darkness Your hand in mine Keeping my sadness company Turning friendship into love 'Tis who you are, Who you hate yourself for being
In that place where your sweetness flows, Where there is no doubt that you care Your monsters ate my heart Consuming chunks of my emotion And I, having an abundance, Was grateful for the chance to feed you
But my heart, now full of holes Still mocked you in its ability to smile So, you kissed me and held my heart once again So I would not drown in my own fear
And I gave you what you always wanted Mind, body, heart, and soul
And there you were All the while disgusted That my promises Don't feel like your reality That my heart is more sweet than savory And that my demons lie dormant While yours are ravenous Looking for new prey
The holes in my heart smolder As I feel that familiar burn The burn of the birth of new demons
11515 But I still love you
