The very breath of my core shakes at the thought of you
What is this madness that penetrates my skin
This venom that drips its way into my core
For where ever I go there you are, but at last are not
The fixation is like grasping at smoke
You reach out into nothingness in hopes to grab what does not exist
And acquire exactly in what you reached out into
why so does my skin craw
How is it my pulse can quicken
A terrible hex you have cursed me with
But the dice have been cast, and it seems I'm at a loss
Is this my fate to feel so
For only a mortal man would yearn for something another owns
Yet the scent still lingers around me
Loftily in the air
Time has not changed that fact
You are my completion, yet I'm afraid I'll never be whole
My bindings trap me with my doppelganger
Someone as tainted as I
My wrists shackled and my spirit undone
Fate set in stone, this is the price I bear
My "cross" to carry
To the gallows I say; to the future
For I know this will never be undone
