Battle

The darkness and the Light
Rage inside of me
Battling for my soul

The Light compels me
It does not deceive me and it loves me
The path it reveals leads only to good things

The dark craves me, it is seductive, it calls me to bed
It leads me blindly down a path which ends in a sheer drop
Into the abyss

I can only stand back and watch as the war rages on
This is not my battle
I am not fighting here, I am no soldier

This is a war over me
I am the prize, the spoils, the battle cry
Soon I will have a champion

Consume Me

You evil gorgeous disgusting exquisite repugnant seductive appalling ravishing thing

I'd nearly forgotten

I'd been free of you for

2 years

3 months

18 days

7 drinks

346 drunken words

12 hours

Many desperately conflicted thoughts

And you're back

Now I'm questioning why I sent you away

You are vile

Shameful

Disgraceful

My biggest secret

And my closest friend

I remember you

In the darkness you whisper to me, comfort me, consume me

I am yours and I become you
I adore you and I loathe you

I turn inward until there's nothing but us, the dark and the moment

I must shut you out again

I must not turn back to you

I must be free of you
