I can bottle anger and destroy faith.
Save up for days till its overflowing with hate.
I’ll round up my scavengers and to my word they’ll create
Destruction and spread their malice like flowers on a wedding day.
I’ll refill and regroup each day, after having dealt swift pain.
You stumble and shudder, eyes wide - disbelieving, as I touch your face
Fear building, clearly evident, as your tears search me; finding nothing in Love’s place.
Siphoning love, I’ll extract your essence
Drain you, so they can be denied too
For something so alien I must know how it makes you feel
For you so wilfully barred me from touching even the rim of Love’s gates.
It’s been lost to me and I to it. Our journey never intertwining; chances you’ve stolen from me.
Love, so precious, why must you exclude me?
Fine! Do as you please I’ve made my decision too
I’ll suck from the dark flower - black nector, never sweet
Mix with it your love and make it just as potent as you
The world will be filled with everything gray
I’ll shatter every soul that comes within inches of me
Such punishment you’ve dealt, I will never forget
For in place of love, someday I promise, only pain will be spent
