I am a raging
inferno
A nuclear furnace with no path for decay,
A crashing tidal maelstrom
Of flesh and frothing chemicals
And scarlet pain contained.
The multiverse collides
Underneath my skin,
Lust and blood foaming over,
Subjecting this fragile shell
To explosions that rock the seas
In every broken breath.
I contain the mayhem;
I am the spectrum,
Burning against the void.
Energy is eternal delight,
But looking at me
No one would ever know.
I am bounded by my weakness;
The cage of reason must go.
Oh how easy it was
In that other life
When I had the cold bright steel of your will
A luminous golden force
To break my skin
And draw the choir from my lips
To scream your eternal song
And bleed me out.
A nuclear furnace with no path for decay,
A crashing tidal maelstrom
Of flesh and frothing chemicals
And scarlet pain contained.
The multiverse collides
Underneath my skin,
Lust and blood foaming over,
Subjecting this fragile shell
To explosions that rock the seas
In every broken breath.
I contain the mayhem;
I am the spectrum,
Burning against the void.
Energy is eternal delight,
But looking at me
No one would ever know.
I am bounded by my weakness;
The cage of reason must go.
Oh how easy it was
In that other life
When I had the cold bright steel of your will
A luminous golden force
To break my skin
And draw the choir from my lips
To scream your eternal song
And bleed me out.
