A Cold-Blooded Epitaph

Dear diary, tonight will be our last My hands are itching for razors My angel, this knife shall carve thee wings Consumed by sickness, I ache to see your blood The hour approaches when I shall lay a nest inside of you Sliced open, I lay waste to my desires Sweet entrails are scooped onto the tile And in my dreams I hold your head beneath the waves After you've died, I kiss the nape of your porcelain neck You enter me in death's perpetual embrace Skin tightens in the throes of lust And in my dreams I cut your mouth from ear to ear Dissecting your angelic body in the quiet of your room How splendidly I carve into your tender heart Shuddering between the sheets For weeks I've watched you, perched above your sleeping form As I caress your perfection My angel, I'll tear your insides out My mind is flooding, the marrow of your bones I cannot subside 'til I have suckled every inch of you Your features now glazed in your own blood My fingers find home amongst your guts And in my dreams I hold your head beneath the waves After you've died, I kiss the nape of your porcelain neck You enter me in death's perpetual embrace Skin tightens in the throes of lust And in my dreams I cut your mouth from ear to ear Dissecting your angelic body in the quiet of your room How splendidly I carve into your tender heart Shuddering between the sheets Whisper your name as you awaken your throat gasps, your skin recoils We shall be intertwined, entangled in our love Murder beckons as time stops with your voice "I'll love you forever" and forever it shall be The knives begin singing, they're weeping for your flesh The pinnacle of obsession is clawing at the fibers of my mind The rampant state of elation is heightened by the paleness of your cries With a promise of absolution, my thoughts are tangled in my creations With a promise of unequaled pleasure, reason is twisting The knives are crooning for this perfect end For weeks I've watched you, perched above your sleeping form As I caress your perfection My angel, I'll tear your insides out My mind is flooding, the marrow of your bones I cannot subside 'til I have suckled every inch of you I feel the fibers stretch and tear Unbridled climax is achieved I've waited so long for this moment The euphoric act of suicide - suicide!

I awaken -- deep in the grasp of frozen pines Not a shred of clothing, yet I feel no cold The woods envelope my soul Perception multiplies My senses heighten to extremes My heartbeat ever-increasing The only sound aside from the wailing of the wind through the trees I know no fear Boundaries of mortal human flesh have abandoned me as I am renewed I dreamt of such a mutation for countless winter nights My essence became that of a beast I gracefully cut through the forest Shedding my former husk Unfettered by the hindrances of past My purpose manifests, I am void of delusion I am born into this wolven form in seek of human flesh Lead by vampiric hunger I will to feast upon the bones of the meek The marrow of my enemies Lusting to be bathed in the blood of a child To quench my maw with shreds of virgin flesh To tear apart he who I once was To rid the world of his feeble lies For days I travel north, leaving a trail of hollowed bodies in my frigid wake Finding my way back home to stalk amongst the feeble mortals In the clothing of a sheep Envenomed, I am the blackest incarnation The end of their disease On my arrival, vengeance swings a heavy hand Crushing the will of god For countless winter nights I have dreamt of such a day I'd watch the humans crawl 'neath a swirling den of pain The plight of all creation The fall of their existence Extinction, the will of humanity Forsaken by my hand Oh weep, the angels shall be destroyed As claws remove their wings Jaws sodden in the purest blood In the purest fucking blood I bathe! This blackened hand shall reap Shall reap insurmountable Undying, cleaving the sickly hearts of mortals true Earth falls as heaven shall Crumbling as god has taken knee and felt his creation's pain The humans' fucking pain Our lord has birthed the perfect evil unto this fragile earth The sands of time now weigh against you Pounding your weathered backs Impending dread is cast upon you to swallow whole your faith The boundaries of your mortality are the only remorse you'll be shown I arrive unwritten to blacken the work of your lord Your god so feeble, allowed for this end to be born Your god so feeble, trampled 'neath my wrath To die crushed beneath my fist To fall as heaven shall My purpose manifests, I am void of delusion I am born into this wolven form in seek of human fucking flesh

I'll tell you in one sentence The truth should not have broken you You know I'd never turn away Not in your darkest hour I won't reiterate the immense failure on your part To let it die this way displays the weakness of your bonds Numb, I crawl, losing you Over something so frivolous, so petty But this pettiness is all you know You wear a chip on your shoulder like a badge of fucking pride A broken heart? You broke your fucking own I remain. I never would have left your side And now my name will be another excuse For you to grovel in the ill-will called your life I'll miss the friendship that we once shared As you ignite all that which made us strong The fires of envy blaze undying as this devotion is destroyed I watch our dreams reduce to ash, throat stifled by the fumes The stench of brittle feelings burning wets my tender eyes with tear Our memories are the funeral pyre and your words are gasoline Our friendship meets a blackened fate; an ashen epitaph These caustic embers yet remain, soon to be blown away You will choke on my name You'll choke on pictures of my face You will choke on my name You'll choke on what you threw away I was a fool to ask so fucking little from you I should have recognized the frailty of your will I know that you can hear me, I hope that this is killing you I hope you sweat at night dreaming of my face Do whatever makes you happy No holds barred shall remain etched into my mind When my eyes are finally graced with your crooked smile And my insides are licked by those familiar flames Flickering within my gut, deep in my battered chest Burning a hole through my entrails I won't fall I won't succumb to the pettiness which you breed I won't acknowledge the woe in which you live I won't forget the times we have spent I have pictures proving everything You will be fucking missed

I see a red door and I want it painted black No colors anymore I want them to turn black I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes I have to turn my head until my darkness goes I see a line of cars and they're all painted black With flowers and my love both never to come back I see people turn their heads and quickly look away Like a new born baby it happens every day Paint it, black Black No more will my green sea turn a deeper blue I could not foresee this thing happening to you If I look hard enough into the setting sun My love will laugh with me before the morning comes I wanna see it painted, painted black Black as night, black as coal I wanna see blotted out from the world From the
