Fellow Sinner

I may be no saint

I sin just as you do

My soul is neglected

My body is abused

But I am a keeper

Although I keep just one thing

For that, they call me unlucky

A terrible thing

Dress it up or dress it down

Do whatever it is you please

I know a diamond when I see one

And I know what it is you call ivory

Now if you can catch the sinner

The sinner of said soul

I may reveal a simple truth to you

I may let a certain story unfold

But if you hide behind the very thing

That allows your mind to see

I’m afraid that pain may start with you

That pain may continue with me

So tap into the depths of your fears my friend

Allow the darkness to rain true

For without the storm, the clouds can’t break

And as they swallow me

They’ll be carried by you

Lucifer’s Kiss

Eyes flaking

Falling apart

Skin shaking

Torn by lines of fault

Her breath scattered through clean breezes of air

Her laughter lingered

Before crumbling there

And she surrendered

Fingers stretched towards the heavens

But her heart fell to the floor

Mastered what couldn’t be forgiven

Nothing mattered now

Not the blood on the walls

Nothing could be forgotten now

And that’s when she saw

Death

Angry

Never scared

She picked her heart up

Tore open her chest

Slammed it in

Only the devil knows the rest

But one thing is for certain

It’s the cancer of hatred

And the body she slaughtered

Was nothing to the soul that was taken
