You have provoked the darkside of my emotions
but at first your attentions intrigued me,
flames of dark energy invading my heart
almost bringing me to my own destruction.
I lacked sophistication as desire overcame
in sparking fireworks I became consumed,
this kinetic connection between us two
mystified and drew me further under your spell.
Over time I began to feel my spirit start collapsing
perplexed at your vicelike, sinister treatment of me,
as your temper explodes I shun this world
brought here under malevolent intent.
Finally illumination has dawned
as I desperately try to grasp back my reason,
escape I must as your world is not mine
or I will be lost forever in a dark abyss.
Allowing the light to take over my mind
I break out from the insanity of your world,
turning my back, wings of liberty flee
to evade fires of forever damnation.
