Locked away inside his self
Imprisoned by his fears
The piercing cry within his head
Is the only voice he hears
Memories of moments past
Haunt his shattered mind
Many times he’s tried and failed
To leave these thoughts behind
Unable to deny the pain
His spirit knows no peace
He longs to close his eyes and sleep
And bring his soul release
These memories consume him whole
Her face haunts every dream
He can’t take back what he has done
He can’t forget her scream
He knew when he first saw her face
An angel she must be
Body and soul they would be one
She was his only need
But she scoffed at his request for love
Her affection she withheld
Obsession grew to blood-lust forged
From the anger that he felt
Scorned, he wanted sweet revenge
And with clouded judgment planned
He carried out his wicked deed
Her blood was on his hands
Then he sat beside her shallow grave
And said his last goodbyes
The angel – now forever his
Could not, this bond, deny
