You are nothing now but what you serve
You've lost your name you've lost your nerve
Hiding in the darkness underneath the streets
Turned inside out, our souls lie on our sleeves

...Or maybe they just lie.

Your lusting
Your needing
Defeats you
Mistreats you
Depletes you
And yet you know
It completes you and
Repeats now within you.

Standing alone, smelling your fear
Maybe I'll stay where the air is clear
Maybe I'll be safe if I rest up here
But oh my lovely little whore, my dear
I'll fight to make sure you can't come near
Punishment for the fallen is quite severe.

You want to
Contaminate me.
Liberate me.
Violate me.
All so you can
Hate me.
Berate me
Sedate me.

Maybe I'll falter, and maybe I'll fall,
Maybe my will isn't so strong after all.
Maybe you're right and it's better to crawl,
More fun to live as another rat's thrall.
So maybe I should just stop fighting that call,
When the devil is clawing his way up my walls.

...Or maybe I will stay up here
Sustained by a hope at which you sneer
That someday I can make all of your filth
Disappear.

Your lusting
Your needing
Defeats you
Mistreats you
Depletes you
And yet you know
It completes you and
Repeats now within you.

Oh my lovely little whore
Disappear.

you know, i agree with you - the title is a little bit off but I didn't really know how else to sum it up. i believe it does give an impression different from the poem itself. i'll think about it.

thanks so much for the comment and fave :blowkiss:

hey, in case you didn't know... i meant no mercy as a compliment. it goes with the mood of the poem... :D
:iconme--:
the thing, i think, that i like about this is how accurately it conveys the strong and defiant nature of the persona, but still sends across her deepest feelings, doubts, etc...

i really like your latest stuff... i hope you're feeling okay tho... :hug:

feeling better also, thanks for asking... :D
