Hard earned closure

Coils of nerves burning in pain
Dried out eyes that cried in vain
Ephemeral thoughts burned out
My mind was shrouded in a cloud
That's what I had left
Trying to crawl but I am dazed
Everything is just a haze
I don't even know this place
I'm again in my own world
But it's incomplete and dark and cold
The flame has ceased to burn
Even clocks have ceased to turn
Now everything I know is dead
A everlasting nightmare
A place that I now dread
But something cause me to hiss and stare
Reaching out again the hand of deceit
To push me further into filth
I don't need your poison now
Your veiled shadow strike
Keep the false hope to yourself
Before you I will no longer bow
You're no saviour to me
Something I now came to see
You didn't save me from myself
You came to be from empty words
From feelings dying to hold on
To moments that are forever gone
With your poisoned lips I'm done
Fragrant venom dropping words
Eyes of ice and fangs like swords
You are but a malicious temptress
A devourer of worlds
But you will not have mine
At least not this time
I am strong enough to say
My heart no longer stays in the way
You will not have me today
