Shroud

Covet which cannot grow, must fill what’s empty.
Declare your purest self missing.

Behold your doppelganger’s voracious appetite and wayward counsel.
I owe on an open debt, mortgaging my content in numbing doses.
Decay will take its place, embedding itself in the cracks of me.
Alter my pain to taste, convincing, excess becomes God you see.

When there’s nothing left to barter with,
what will you take from me?
Cursed character shrouded by this disguise.
Drained of all verve, a soul denied.

This hunt for the dimming glow.
transforming this life I knew into bedlam.
Disease of a sickened soul, beginning with a vow to forsake myself.
Decay will take its place, embedding itself in the cracks of me.
Alter my pain to taste, convincing, excess becomes God you see.

When there’s nothing left to barter with,
what will you take from me?
Cursed character shrouded by this disguise.
Drained of all verve, a soul denied.

A sickened soul denied, left to a dimming glow.

Purged and calcified.
Purged and calcified.
I have little to trade,
some crooked bones and the relics of no use to me.
Now what is left to cheat?
Those swindled loves, and their haunting of my masquerade.
