UNFORGIVEN

Atop the ledge of my damnation
Begins a journey you’ll soon regret
Caged up within my prison
Diving into solid stone

Enlaced with chapping wounds
Forgive the lies; drive back the goodbyes
Give in to this painful insanity

How I thrive with the blood of a wolf
Icing over my essence
Jilt thee to your dire grave
Kill the one who means so much
Loosen the noose entangled with love
Mistaken for murder
Never reaching a climax
Only coming to an uncertainty

Pressing down upon my salted wounds
Quietly whispering among the stars
Resentful confusion driven by madness
Stitching a broken heart into a tombstone
Tear after tear after tear
Unraveling in my ears

Vaulted from your stone
Wilting in the snow, waiting for your return
Xeric demands; what’s left to give?
Yet I am left without you
Zapped in this first life, alone

WRITER'S NOTE: I used the A-Z style where I started each line with the next letter of the alphabet starting with A at the top and ending with Z at the bottom.
