Repercussions
Ventures without cogitation
Deceiving has become an addiction
Unascertained of my identity
My soul has lost its purity
These words are devoid of meaning
My once warm loving touch is now nothing
The corollary of remorse, for all eternity
All these things just follow conformity
Obscurity consumes my anguished heart
Depleted I become I am breaking apart
Acceptance was all that I had asked
These are the repercussions of the past
Then your exquisite eyes I descried
With one glance, my soul you had purified
My peculiarities were conspicuous
I was realised from my selfishness
You were essential to my serenity
Deceitfulness was no longer a necessity
I can’t verbalise what I had felt inside
It was an inconceivable paradise
Then all my dreams had become true
You had told me that “I love you”
Felicity was reached at long last
No more repercussions of the past
The distorted truths are now unravelling
My Ethereal nirvana is lost and breaking
My spirit is consumed by everlasting despair
The scorching fires of hell cannot compare
Unparalleled torment is leaving my unstable
These macabre thoughts are uncontrollable
Her disappearance left me aghast
With my blood on the blade, I’m free at last
