An Apprentice of Death

by xan-abyss

I wish to learn the secrets, so eternal of spiritual transformation To know the ways of the Ferryman To usher souls through and beyond I long to master the art of cosmic transference To carry the departed to their resting place And to be their guardian It is not an act of hate, Sick lust or twisted love it is not the fault of rage Nor is it for fun. I do it in the name of inhuman artistry My life i've dedicated To the Reaper's harvesting. This world is such an ugly place I'm your savior in a way I cut you loose and set you free I grant your spirit liberty... Evil exists in all colors and codes there's every kind of shape and size A world ablaze, drowning in torture and rape We could use a few more minds like mine. I am not a killer. I am an apprentice of death. I will guide your spirit home on the wings of your last breath.

Tate Langdon in AHS season 1 was my muse for this.
