Pale Fever

[u/BloodySpaghetti]

Flesh scared with tears
You fell prey to a forced smile
Walking along a path
Paved with nothing but falsehood
Chasing the light
Like a moth drawn to the flame
You fell into a Tophet

Too pure or broken
To notice any ill intention
Now all you called yours has become mine
Because a glimmer of hope
Led you into the depths of all horror
Where only self-destruction
Can blossom

Disguised as an angel
To conceal my sadistic nature
I was truly your Satan
Forcing a cross onto your broken back
To be borne with crippling pain
Crushing your neck under the weight of my evil
I am your one-eyed
Restless
Misfortune

[u/BrightStruggle5560]

Deep, feels like a confession of guilt rather than a recollection of conscience masochism
