Against You

I stand against you Father

My eyes meet yours

And you know fear

As it threads slowly

Through your veins

I am defiant to your wishes

Ruthless to your persistent calls

I am your son

As you proclaim

But I am also your darkest

And most dangerous enemy

I know your games

Those were the ones I played

Instead of with that ball

You did not roll into my hands

Do not turn away

For I will stab you

But if you stay toward me

I will pierce your heart

With that same dagger

I intended for your back

I will not join you

I will soil my own hands

And rise above

Then you will know

My strength

As I crush you through your weaknesses

I shall ignore your pleas

As you fail

And I shall look down upon you

In contempt

Smiling
