I saw her,
In the cold eerie rain
Holding the dead bodies
Of the children we made…
I touched her as close to Death I lay
I knew her, in a time & place of my own making
I died a thousand times to be there for her
Trapped in time infinitely…
For you do the craziest things for love
No matter what the means
Crying her name out
As the demons claw upon my sanity
I fought for her
As the hell hounds came
I gave my soul on a platter
I burned in Hell time & again
Just to console her
I took the punishment
Her crimes, my skin…
I gave myself
…To protect her…
The taste of Death
Lay on her sweet lips
The twisted madness
Claws inside of me
I just want to keep her safe
It is not her fault
The sacrificial pain
I live
…Eternally…
You may say,
It is all for naught…
That I’m a fool
Who deserves the suffering I’ve wrought…
Perhaps that’s the truth?
Perhaps that’s who I’ve become?
But,
In the shadows of torment
The endless hells of life
Her beautiful whispers
Set an inferno upon the ice in my veins
My blood burning from her song
My soul accepting its pain
She is my life
She is my wife
She is my EVERYTHING!
She did not kill our children
In anger & hate
She did so in sorrow
To protect us from what they had became…
She is the reason the demons now prey
Branding my skin with their eternal tormenting!
Each & every night
A new torture in place
I’ll do so forever
I’ll burn in flames…
Nothing could compare
To the feelings I have
Every time I get a glimpse of her
Just before the next Death arrives…
She is why I’ve accepted the infinite sorrow
Upon my soul
The only way to keep safe
Her & the children we had before…
I will fight for her
…Forever more…
It was her sins that wrought upon me my punishment
A deal made, long before our relationship
However,
Be that as it may
It was my choice…
-To Endure For Her Serenity-
