Fountain of Blood

Perfectly manicured,
A house, a car, a girl.
Yet no joy is found,
In this spotless world.

Living this life,
Simply to live,
Count down the days,
Breath by breath.

Painted smile hides,
What cannot be seen,
Sorrow and misery,
Everlasting pain.

A blackened heart,
A wretched soul.
One twisted with rage,
Other, shattered and cold.

Listen to the voices,
Echoing in your head.
Urging ever onward,
Leading to the edge.

"Surrender to my darkness,
I will wrap you in love.
End this perpetual suffering,
With a fountain of blood."
