Madness

What have I become?

My dearest companion

Come to drench me in your rage

Smother smoky tendrils along shattered glass

A mirror

Illusion

Who rests beyond the gates of misdirection?

Slithering your corrupted veins

Tattooing tainted scars

Etching deep

Deep

Deep

Into my slippery skin

Losing face

Losing place of mind

Falling into strange voices

Whispering

Hissing

Words that can never be understood

Madness

Where does your purpose lie?

Bleeding scarlet

Along the foreign roads

Blackening the heart

The core

The interior

Of my own existence
