Madness
this
majestic madness.
threatening
to transform.
to
shatter.
erasing
the notion
of
reality.
if
this is wanted,
then
this I give.
and
my conciousness expands.
to
a realm of
peaceful
darkness
surreal
loneliness
reaching
near subconciousness.
and
I think, of death of love.
and
I feel, the life the passion.
I
am being taunted by desire.
and
in my love of temptation,
I
spit on sin.
I
laugh at death.
but
I am swallowed up
by
emptiness.
stricken
with grief.
mourning
for my lost innocence,
I
feel,
as
the embodiment
of
Persephone.
