Wave goodbye to what we were; a hand falls following Kingdoms of courage and cost; ashes of loss Her banner set ablaze; my courage torched with it No chance to bare an heir; no hope for reprieve Our world brought down around her crown Ambition quivers in the wind; the arrow flies further Tears that flow down crimson cheeks; a dagger plunged into her back Which shall slow to a stop first? A palace worth remembering; forgotten shambles of defeat She believed us to be better; iron forged with the strength of promise Her silken shawl of halcyon became a beckon of torment Forever is her beauty lost; sullied by the blood of despair We stood before her as one; laid to rest together My sword joins her circlet of mishap; omitted by the victorious Doomed to be buried; traitors of sensibility In her place a new crown to bring down

I never was a part of you; a silent destruction of expectations All the pieces placed down upon your feet; a shadow made of rejection Nevermore do I follow a false promise; a fate of wandering deceit You could take it all away; all but that part of me My not so secret obsession; delusions borne from desires It took away my purity; a monster I’ve become Compulsion eats away the senses; the need grows stronger One thousand ways to make it true; terrible things done to you They converge in the middle; unabashed lust and loathing Uncontrollable thoughts a torrent; the world is spinning Further and further away; from the reality and actuality Hate and love intertwine my mind like rope; strangling rationality Please take it all away This part of me Listen to the others now; loud in their discontent Voices shattering conventional silence; hate from a place of ignorance They shout your name; meaningless and hollow Misguided and afraid Speak your words of lust; of the faint elegance between Let harmony entwine the two of you; a kind reprieve from evil nearby Perfection of her saccharine impurities; not lost on you at least Sensible and tranquil Delicate touch of a hand in your own; a disputed embrace among the multitude Sensations of unbridled bliss; beside oneself in paradise Together in a quiet meadow; blood red roses checkered about Forbidden amity of passion burning bright See her love before you now grow; defiance of the wicked They know not of such purity; of nothing as real as this Two hearts find a way together; a troubled path to a place of honest beauty Sweet emotion built upon fickle petals of misplaced fear A lone blade of grass; born upon the circumstance of crown Royal appurtenance short lived A deception by blood; set forth a justification of future treason Mother loves another; cast away by a listless thought of lust Who now claims an undesirable? What place does discarded luxury have? They see you as nothing; to bandy the living as if insignificant From the comfort of nobility to the pits of manmade avarice But you have something still; polish and a blackened heart He leads a conquest that will eradicate your people; but you pay no mind In you a purpose seen; the remnants of a golden past Chance given though unusual; in return a want naught but of loyalty A request for your voice made; discovery of love that smolders deep within You had the chance to flee; but what was there to go back to but treachery? Home was found with them; built upon the ashes of your erstwhile culture Allegiance burned through your heart like a field on fire; blind obedience replaced by devotion You become something entirely different; the betrayed who became the final betrayer A princess of nothing who would bear a burden of drastic decimation La Malinche; a malachite conqueror born upon the circumstance of abandonment Sway along with the cradling waves; they remind me of you Found safe among the tide; a betrayer so true Nourishing the senses; drowning in the deception Abandoned like the wretched deceivers A frigid embrace overcomes; warmth left only in hand Your touch a damning reminder; slowly slipping further away Taking me deeper into the royal shadows; a life left to waver Entwine my heart in jaded sea tangle Bleak moments become crushing memories; compression too intense to breath Fear finds a place inside my heart; water in my lungs Frightened not by the current; only by treachery Hazy blue becomes nothing more than black I reach the lowest place to be; coarse and caustic We become something we swore not to be; villains of the circumstance Nine thousands pounds of pressure; nine thousand ways to mislead Left searching for the one way to say goodbye A melody of flame dances over the lands Ceaseless ferocity of loss and ruin Breathe of a million souls stifled by crimson smoke Infernal atrocity of nature and negligence Blue Mountains basked in fiery red The devil of change and disregard Dry winds are the betrayer of men Electric currents of a barren destruction Loss of life and home Straining against reality of the inferno Saying goodbye to the helpless Becoming the hopeless Embrace one final time As the world ignites Say goodbye As the world burns in silence You let me in But they say I have to go The doorway to something different Now a barrier to what I desire Locked away behind On the outside looking in A place of comfort and passion Memories left to fade A wonder of what could have been Is there more behind the door? I looked upon you with desire; a passion of pure fire Your flames drew me closer; curiosity fused with admiration An essence of pure intrigue and excitement Dancing about in my eyes; swirling beyond the reality of my mind The immense heat your smile creates in me is all that matters But the closer I get; the further away I feel Where comfort was meant to be; only the pain of the burns reside Every step tore away a piece of me; and revealed the truths in you I still saw the brightness that lured me here; but also the sad sensibility Lost was the mystery; replaced by a revelation You were the lantern promising warmth in a frigid darkness And now the light that guides me to you hurts just as much as the hollowness The sting of cold pales in comparison to the flare; the engulfing horizon Yet I cannot look away; forever drawn to you One more step; another bit of me taken apart I’m left now with blinded vision and scorched emotions Holding my fantasies together in my hands; losing what brought me here Flesh and desires; beauty and brightness I held such hope in you Now I hold only the flames of your memory Laugh now my sweet; rejoice in the calm You can rest your troubled mind; your threadbare heart A battle was fought before you Pure kindness prevailed; a gift given to this world You stood before a mountain of chaos; yet triumph was never a doubt The scars will forever be a reminder; of strength and spirit Against all doubt and odds The purity of your love conquered; a simple truth A body left broken; a resolve now unlike all others Champion of a cherished place A temptation of anger from deceit born before you True courage in evading those feelings; bloodless wounds heal Reckless self-indulgence took parts of you away; stole virtue by force Yet you chose a better path; a way to forgive Protector of pure thought and innocence A foolish attempt at weakening your will; a fool most of all You’ve always been better; and invariably must so be This will not be your sole conflict; nor only victory Lead us down the path of calmness And remember to laugh |
