Benedictum

The pawn has overtaken
And now I stand forsaken
Something wicked this way comes for me
Darkest horizon, suffer in silence,
Trapped and ashamed and contained by my beautiful pain
Barbed just like wire, thwarted desire
Surging within me until I shall lose all control
From the depth of my soul
Dark heart
And it shall come to pass,
Cloaked in the veil that remains
As tattered as my past
The tapestry of life is stained
By my beautiful pain
I remain in my darkness in chains
Alabaster cold and lifeless inside I remain
Courting disaster
Servant and master, hunter and hunted consumed
