Does my presence torment your mind? Or does my face etch itself upon your fingers at night ? Doomed to see but never to touch. Doomed to be a prisoner of memory and fear. Curses and bloodbaths have summoned you near. Do you feel the weight of my spirit whenever she is near ? Fated to futility, your mind torments its own being. A mind that longs but never fully seeing. Endless rivers have I cried for you; now it’s your turn to kneel at my pew. Tempted to touch, take a bite. Or forever be haunted by my memory into the dusk of an eternal night.

Torment.
Does my presence torment your mind? Or does my face etch itself upon your fingers at night ? Doomed to see but never to touch. Doomed to be a prisoner of memory and fear. Curses and bloodbaths have summoned you near. Do you feel the weight of my spirit whenever she is near ? Fated to futility, your mind torments its own being. A mind that longs but never fully seeing. Endless rivers have I cried for you; now it’s your turn to kneel at my pew. Tempted to touch, take a bite. Or forever be haunted by my memory into the dusk of an eternal night.
</3 (may your heart break threefold the damage you have done to mine).
