Oh, how dark our history is You, my author of misery and pain With fingers set to scribble my demise This is our story, writ with chaotic pen
One that left calamity in its wake
You would always start the chapter Every page inked with words of black On the point of a pen, you'd viciously write Using the sharp edge to stab into my being
Scripting, deeply, my eternal damnation
You erased my name and made me delusional Always forcing me to your divine will For the pen, always mightier than the sword Was kept toward the edge of my neck
Swearing to strike at any given moment
Always determined, I'd end our sentences Fighting to gain balance and bear the final period Yet it was not without consequences For you and I were wrought with scars
Etched into the bottom of our hearts, a burning black
If only these words painted a happy picture But the thousand only paint a picture of pain A dreary battle between two broken forces On timeworn pages, brittle-ing on and on
Begging for the piece that holds our final chapter
And that chapter swiftly came for I was the ending Leaving in the night, gone without a trace With no words or ink left as a guiding clue Carefully escaping from your paper prison
Free from the agony of the writer's press
On that day, I began my life again Starting a happy story; free, original, and new A home of letters filled with love, life, and joy Where I'd never dare see you again, my dear, dear author
