Destruction, Calm and Clear
You are my light,
Calm and clear
I see you as vividly
As I know the monsters within myself.
I see horrible things,
And I've done horrible things.
But let's get something clear,
I am the only
Monster here.
And I do not say this for pity,
Nor do I say it for grace.
I say it for peace,
And to maybe save some face.
But I desperately hope
That you'll still love me so
Despite my vicious actions,
And you'll see to my good intentions.
I have a cold front,
An icy demeanor,
That I'm afraid you have yet to see.
I have no use
For my colder parts
When I am so
In love
With you.
But I'll have you know,
Any threats to my priority's
Future,
Will be eradicated
Promptly
And efficiently.
You are my priority,
And we share a future.
I love you so,
You are my light,
My love,
And I will not let
Petty little brats
Get in the way
Of that.
So still hold me
In whatever light you so find fitting,
But I am not an angel,
I am not good,
Save for my intentions.
Aha, I **** at this "being a good person" thing.
