Blood

Is what I see lurking underneath my pale skin

I see it pulsing through my veins

It detains my sins

It nurtures and makes me thrive

Like the very plague that kills innocence

I pledge myself to the life of detested sinners

I no longer can be saved

What you call pure happiness

Where does it reside?

For I have lost its one true address

I am lost

Forlorn

I can only be sated with bared flesh

And blood

Oh, what blood is

It's beautiful

Fortress of pain and suffering

I have succumbed to its every desire

I have died at times of sorrow

It revives me

It feeds me with what food could not

Sustenance of my every need of sick, unholy doings

Flames engulf me ever so quickly

I die, I am dead

My dreams

My hopes

My destiny

Full of manure

I no longer need

In blood I trust

In blood I am sated

Teach me to be more adaptive

To this beautiful darkness

I have fallen in love with
