Blight of Pathos

for a contest

Take the breath right out of me

Laugh it all away as you bury me

Shed no tears as I go missing

I was never the one you were kissing

 

Drown in my waste with nothing but a smile

Don't look away, not even for a little while

Relish in the thin line between you and I

Remember being inside of me as you lay me down to die

 

Place the crown upon your head

Laying beside my body, good and dead

You'll bask in the glow of your conquered land

Then feel the touch of my ice-cold hand

 

Taking the breath right out of you

Laughing it all away as I bury you

Shed no tears when you go missing

You were never the one I was kissing

[Antonio Valentino]

Well I sure did... hard to believe this hasn't been reviewed yet? I liked the tie in from the beginning to the end and I really enjoyed the flow. Very nicely done, looking forward to reading more.
