Abandoned

by fabian cortez

So I looked into

Your eyes a looking

Glass to a soul

So blackened

I knew you

Had to

Die

-

O' many passed

By this hand

So tortured

Yet relishing

In its

Journey of

Destruction

-

Sharpening tools

To beckon

Those unwitting

As your prey

A life once

Led in

Adoration

-

So taken in view

Of a window

To death of spirit

Of heart, yet

In cowardice

You raised no

Attempt at

Rescue

-

Now I stand

Here to judge

Your crimson tears

Of self indulgence

Drain, for

Everything

There is a

Consequence

-

Know now as

Blood flows eagerly

Exiting as your

Putrescent breath

A bed of roses

Caked in rancid

Flesh waits

Your rest

-

Your penance

A revelation

Through your

Looking glass

Of love lost

In death

Forsaken for

Eternity
