Fire demons dance at their tips…

Soul flayed to a bloody peeled view,
Yet, as I gave myself away,
My secrets turned to weapons true…

Epitaphs in sullen grey,
A feast is spread before us,
Table filled with what we say…

The dank rot of old woven wishes,
Fill nostrils with a stench of onyx air.

Equate it with the dark,
As lacking any light,
Devoid of any spark.

For some it is a tiny hole,
Just a speck upon the soul,
For others, a massive cave,
Where the light is not so brave.
