Covenant

by SCARECROW   Oct 29, 2004


I had a mad desire to slit my wrists, all thanks to Sin, so instead I wrote this. Before I got shoved into an asylum. By the way, all you poeple who comment on my stuff (you know who you are) I love you guys so much! You totally rock!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Rope of existence around my throat.
Watching, dying, Christ will gloat.
Knife of death set me free.
Crying, bleeding, let me be.

Abandoned even by my shadow
for the night has hungrily devoured its flesh.

Carving my sorrows onto the hollow
in the flesh of my soul.
Pushing the knife through my skin
leaving empty gaping holes.

Sign the covenant of my crucifixion.
