Mad Father

You never sought revenge.

You helped me and even saved my life.

Even when everything was at an end.

My Father's hands,

That stole your very eyes,

Also stole the lives and parts of others.

All of my life I was raised with lies.

Now the cursed mansion,

My home,

Burns a scarlet glow.

I watch you fade with the flames.

The touch of your lips on my forehead,

Lingers hotter than the blazing fire

Though you are cold.

"May you be smiled upon..."

You whisper,

As your mouth curls into your first,

And last smile.

I could only watch everything burn,

Along with the other corpses.

But it didn't burn the evil in my blood,

As the red path descends yet again.
