Between your poisonous smiles, Your heartless jokes and your Razorblade Smile, I fell for the Person I thought I saw: The One The cuts made, still hurt They haven't closed up yet Just flesh wounds but they, They sting. They burn. It's Been a day and that thin red Line, the mark of your possession Is still on me, marking me for The world to see. You're my Obsession, the world's Pariah But they all bow before you Wouldn't dare say a word in Your presence, except to beg At your feet for your cruel Double-edged mercy. A day more You reward them. Throughout Eternity, you taunt them. The Price is so heavy, yet they pay up They can hardly resist. The price Of Humanity, of Greed is fatal indeed.
The unchanging constant wherever I may go. The Universe itself is Undefined, except for you and your Kin: Change. Time wasn't ever as Constant as you; its fickle nature Is as legendary as your promptness Change was never as evident as you; Its subtlety as infamous as the Pungent, dark Air you leave behind In the lives of humans and animals alike.
Part of a series about Death. They're all pretty disconnected and they don't have to be read in any particular order.
