Your skin is so cold

yet your heart is still beating.

Angel you will forever be

so cunning yet deceiving.

Yet i will die alone

where no sun can reach me.

Falling down into the fire

where the birds shall feed me,

and burn my skin will burn

dying as you deceive me.

Falling lower into the coal

so my ashes can feed thee.

Yet another year

the wind will come,

and crying letters will fall

from an opec sky.

But no one will hear you cry,

above the ashes

which were once my own.

Where i died with out the sight of your soul,

where i cried without life to spare.

Because of you my soul is gone from there.

My body cursed to move on,

wandering lost and not to be found.

Love should not be a word from my mouth

yet it was once a deep song.

My body moves within the core

where my ashes will forever burn,

and above my ashes where i once was

you are forever cursed to cry above.

To see the sight of my body dying,

burning in the fires yearning.

As the birds feed my lowly prying,

so my death even more painfully bringing.

Your selfless trials that i attained.

I once cried for your ordained

high and mighty pride you saved

for yourself and sacrifice I became.

For your hopeless lust your words

stabbed me further

then your sharpest sword.

For then I might be sacrifice

to your ordained pride

once in my life.

Once again you caused me to die,

once again my tears did cry.

I hurt you too

because in the fire i died

alone without you,

it took your pride.

And now you cry

for in your vain i died.

You feeling of terror is now my desire,

I laugh because your pride

is now my power.
