VOID OF INSANITY
By TRIXSTER
A wistful epic of a charming betrayal
Sends a child into a psychotic reality
Where persistent flames open wounds
And hate and malice leave a legacy of despair.
Silken words of freedom
Wither at the bitter sound
Of shattered hope.
While simple idealism
Slips into the vacant abyss
Of reality's grave.
Irony mauls the carcass of the sane
Wrenching a slain soul with vicious vulnerability.
Defeat fiercely whispers sweet horror.
Bliss is twisted and charred as
A false victory falls to ashes.
Time haunts an empty pain.
Crimson stars burn in cold silence.
Loathsome pieces of vengeance weep
For littered crumbs of innocence.
Lifeless sacrifices echo slowly
In a shaft of eternal rage.
Traces of velvet truth spoiled
Forever in humanity's shadow.
And a morbid angel of demise
Ends it all in a surreal blaze
Of distant memories and broken promises.
