Come close to the unfamiliar warmth

Coy gesture

To paralyze



Beloved

Covetous

Stuns the brute with uninvited praise



The troubled times

The tear aways

Disconnected

But forever demanding



Cataclysm

The slate is clean



Anathema

It's rapture endearing



Occupied opposition

Modern day mayhem in its place

Trust your fears that deception will come

In the shape of chivalry



Antidote

To this apathy



Initial longing like needles to nerves

Converts into conquered

Kiss it goodbye

The beauty's conceit

In this house of suffering



What's been denied

Is now desired



Bound and branded



Deprivation provokes frustration

The copy kill preconceived

Impelled to convert

Amends from this solitude

Recoil victims from travesty



Cataclysm

The slate is clean



Anathema

It's rapture endearing



Bound and branded

By the crestfallen mark
