The tall oak tree marks sudden death The man whom I speak does not lay at rest there He lies forgotten in the tomb I built with grief Wilting Red roses for a broken spirit And crow's gather for pools of blood They no longer mind the taste of shame on the tempest tongue And no one cries for vengeance Death is that way for the lonely tortured soul May sympathy just die with the rest of the world? No one wants to answer this question, so I never ask. I paid my visit to the tomb with blood on my hands I dropped the knife into the tall grass where no would find it I would say that I'm sorry, but he can't hear me now I tell myself, I'm going to be okay, but that is not true I am the transformation at moonlight horrors wax poetic But I am real And I am not sober for this soliloquy I am drunk with insanity
