kismet death

the fates are on to me, i know
hiding behind the cover of reality
making me believe that
things are as they should be
marking ev'ry move,
listing ev'ry squint, whince, sigh

i know the fates are on to me
lurking amongst corners
in gallant pursuit of catching me
unarmed, unclothed
restless and unprepared
smiling,grining at the opportunity
to pounce, gnaw, tear me into shreds
and feed me to other lost souls
that hunger for love
for angst, for salvation

you bet i know the fates are on to me
fleeing the warm embrace of the sun for me
to make sure i suffered
as much as they did
to trick me into accepting life
as an atrocity
to help me succomb to the guilt
that was your stolen love
and realize i was alone.


hidden
by ectar

i mean goodbye
like i mean goodnight
like when the night will hide me
from plain sight
but though you don't see me
you know

i'm there
