My Vulture

Why am I so obsessed with you?
Your darkness isn't good for me
Drowning for you
Drowning in you

This sea is towering high above me
This castle too dark for me to climb
I watch from the bottom
of the bottomless well
You circle above me

You always were my vulture
I always died for you
You're waiting for me to fall
so that you can feast
I've been waiting for my fall
so that I can rest

Take every last bit and piece of me
That I hadn't already devoted you
Drive the cross through my heart,
like you already crossed my mind

Like you crossed my soul

Why am I so obsessed with you?
I'm a prisoner without a goal
Yet I'd rather die here in chains for you
Than trying to set myself free

You are the only free I'll know

    :O I love this one! so much! definitly one of my favorites! And starting it off like that is pure brilliance :D it's my favorite part of the whole poem and it's right at the beginning, it just gets you hooked the minute you begin to read :)

  2. Chelsea said exactly what i wanted to say!! That beginning... its pure gold.

    But even the ending did just the work for me!!

  3. Thank you so much. Yes in deed, the ending lines pretty much sums up what the whole piece was about. :P

  4. I think that the very last line is just great.
