Your faint light burnt out
like a bonfire in a blizzard
sharp tongues feasted on your willpower
drained by energy vampires
they took it away from you
left you a shriveled-up carcass
to ward off their own darkness
Dust in the wind
piled up on the floor
excessive people pleasing
no vitality left for yourself
do not fear
your charred spirit will ascend
from your own ashes
A day will come
when you'll burn bright enough
to melt the flesh
from their cold bones
repel them back into their crypts
where they won't have permission
to suck the life out of you anymore
