you are right behind me

And so I walk with the silhouette of death behind me

Ever so slowly

The song of temptation harmonizing their melody

To deceive my wariness with the promise of a relief

That indeed you are there right behind me.


Ireful souls lashing out at my ability

To have begged the gods to have you returned to me

I heave a placid breath

Ever so slowly

Because you are right behind me.


Alas I am human, possessing my own foolish inadequacies

The song tempting than the sirens luring men to their demise in deep blue seas

Light in the brink of illuminating my darkened heart from this wretched grief

But momentarily, lamentably, paranoia crept at the god's measure of honesty

So I look behind

Ever so slowly

You are indeed there

And you have vanished behind me.
