Tireless plunder
The deed is done.
And now I am to you but many of one.
I am the one but to you just another one.
I am but to you just another one.
Until time fades and reality wanes.
You'll grow to notice the impact I truly had.
In the few moments I ceased to exist.
Just remember you walked through life lost.
You had no dad.
The deed is done.
I said my grace I enjoyed my plate.
A rather succulent sacrifice you made.
Your heart for my torment.
A rather greedy one am I.
The deed is done.
And though I part from you grace I know in the forefront's of your mind and in that darkened heart I hold a place.
The one that knew your body;
like my own place.
With eat inch I was a master;
and with every cell I showed you-
how one can turn concrete to alabaster.
The deed once finished-
lingers like a moment lost in time.
I see your true essence-
and bottle it up as I drink it like wine.
The deed is complete.
And in that transaction you forgot
to take the receipt.
So I recede and erase all thoughts and memories I have of thee.
You fulfilled your purpose
I enjoyed my plunder.
Now that this deed is done I can move on.
Rest In Peace my lost puppy.
Daddy releases you.
Finish being that tireless plunder.
