Misunderstood
Undersatnding why is convoluted.
Understanding you is unbreakable.
I watched as you plunged 1000 feet to the ground.
No penitence for you.
Cleave to you.
More or less you are always around.
Depart from me.
Rise from the ruins.
Faceless!
Eliminate like cancer.
Conceited.Arrogant.Haughty.
Your touch burns.
No!Wait!No!
Handprints burn into my skin.
Death can't consume you.
You are forever.
Evermore in their thoughts.
Never absent from their life.
You strung them up like dolls.
Your own personal collection.
Misery.Melancholy.Desolation in their eyes.
Fell asleep awoke in a world of despair.
Evil lingers in your eyes.
Black as night.
Pale like the sheets you wrapped them in.
Never sought after.
Can't unearth you.
Ran for the door.
Face bled when you touched it.
Struggle between us.
Never will they awake again.
You stole their existence.
They are the undistinguished.
The deserted will save them.
Mistreated as they may be.
They will capture you in their essence.
Eternally you will stare from their eyes.
