Return of the Beast

Folder: 
Blah

Thou fiendish beast

I killed you years ago

Shutting you deep into the depths

Of a heart so black

Even She couldn't see to the bottom of it.



Your existence was celebrated

While mine, fell to the curb-side

I had to murder you to survive

From being suffocated

Under the weight of your shadow.



I buried you, dead and gone

In the hopes of never seeing you once more

But these memories in my heart

Have dredged you up

From the nothingness that I am.



So now, oh feared beast

You come once again to kill me

Craving the blood you tasted years ago

Knowing it won't take long

To extinguish this bitter flame.
