His Darkness

Clink! Clink!

The gold clatters against one another

As it settles against the overflowing treasure

Causing a ripple of noise to slip through

 Wild rampant thoughts plaguing the room for silver of a moment

The glittering gold mystifying the eyes

A hard calculating edge being masked behind them

Face marred by wrinkles

And the lips tugged downwards carving a permanent frown

Adding to his aging beauty

A corrupted soul blinded by its thirst

To the vices acted upon for a sense of power

 Fingertips graze its lid as they close the chest

 Locking the doors to his tainted heart

Owner’s voice echoes through blanket of silence

Discontent dripping in his every word

Not enough ....not enough...

Unknowing that it will never be enough
