poem about untrue "true love", abuse, and hypocrasy
I've tasted your tears as they spilled 'cross my lips,
I've licked your lifeblood from my fingertips,
Indulged in your madness, lay ill in your pain,
How can I accept this has all been in vain?

Each sweet promise shattered, each tender word smeared,
I finally found faith and its just as I feared,
Your name is a lie, your love is a sin,
Your hate's the dark waters that I'm drowning in.

A demon's wicked smile plays on your lips,
Your shadowed face still haunts my dreams,
Trapped in your realm of dark delusions,
Nothing is quite what it seems.

Fiendish teeth tear tender flesh,
In agony I'm torn apart,
I will never mend the scattered pieces,
Of my hollow, ruined heart.
