In the violet obscurity of dawning dusk



You sink your pincers deep into my flesh



Injecting a paralyzing serum



Of bone crushing poison



Causing agonizing memories to resurface



Fringing the anatomy of my unstable psyche



Rehashing aerial degrees of searing anguish



Swamping me within a blackened ocean of bewilderment



Puzzled here I stand as the taste of salt touches my lips



Leaving bite marks carved upon the palms of these empty hands



On your toxins my physique gradually weakens and chokes



Journeying through the powerful charm of my eloquent diction



Why won't you depart from my memory, Why can't you just let me be free?



I no longer want to play the role of the prey entangled in your web of dinner



Sever my way to freedom and I shall tread in the wake of sunrise



For my destiny lies beyond this acrimonious hell hole



Perseverance is the golden key to freedom of turbulence
