8. damnation for you

i indulge myself on sentiment;

simply, there's no stop to the torment.

gorging on idealizations of you —

right now that's my heart being torn askew.


against myself i wage a civil war,

deep down i know, it's you whom i adore.

armed with piercing logic, with raging emotion;

for you i'd bend the knee, pledge my deepest devotion.


i'd race across the bloody battlefield,

leap in front of you, i would never yield;

even as the sword plunges through my chest,

i would smile through my tears and think that i was blessed.


i should have known better than to crawl back to you.

but it's you, it's always you, there's nothing i can do.

the stars simply refuse to align, nor do the constellations;

but for you, i'd trade my soul, sentence myself to eternal damnation.
