He Thrives


Lingering, grotesque 

He comes out of the shadows to devour me again

His smile a treacherous sea of emptiness

His feeble personality soon becoming a work of substinence 

He voices his distinction of power,

While I fall into his deception

My mind becomes obscure 

persistance clings,

But I am still suistaned by his rule

A nil human surface I become as my

                                                           Exhalation

Is a fragment of retrospect

For I am relinquished
