Face of the darkness

Face of the darkness

A Poem by Eliza arabi

The thorns of the rose bed have resided in my skin

I hope you’ve made the best you thought you could to win

You could never be defenseless because im weak against your cruel lies

All my life ive locked myself in my gut, (do you try , do you try)

And ive fallen apart and bled hard as days went by

Ive become the face of the darkness in search of something more

Ive drowned in the darkness ,  my minds at war.

My soul closed out, my heart stepped on.

I feel no breath, I feel no beat,

Time grabs me ,

By the wrist and takes me back to you.

Lied through your walls so thick, how could you?

Knowing you destroyed a life, how do you even sleep at night?

Everything you said tore me down, so hollow and bitter.

I grew up in flames, ones with a passion of hate.

But I guess you were right, I guess im a quitter

But remember karma is cruel, and so can be fate

Paranoias all I might have,

But one day even your sunset will be fake.

Your conscience will burn you,

Just like you set fire to my dreams.

You will shatter with your tongue acerbic

Just like the sour pain on my trembling lips

The pain that takes me away to no escape

Im stumbling and my weakened knees are crumbling

The devil wears a smile, but one day you’ll fall

And ill wait the fear to which im endlessly awake
