Fatal Frame

The lingering scent of a dying dream
Fulfilment of damnation from aeons past
The promise once broken to be kept encaged in a prison of lies.

Unjustly until we meet our demise.

This crimson scar will never bloom
A bloodstained tear takes the plunge from your face
Madness seeps from your mind as you slash through this realm
Despair, hatred and sadness corrode your reason.

The mourning dawn shall remain out of sight
The pain refuses to subside
All those years lonely because I failed you
Never again!

The caress of the dark and the daggers that wound
Faithful to none but the endless void beneath
Piece by piece, our souls break down into shards of glass
Do not forget me and as the roots take hold, don’t let go!

It constricts and chokes the life from our bodies
The malice lurking in every crevice.

Cracking the foundation of this plane
To continue as a hollow shell
Begging to be broken and released from this torment
Yet, the time is upon us
To fulfil our destiny.

I feel your veins pulsate as I clench
And as the whimper of your fading life escapes your lips
The horror evokes an anguished bellow from the depths of my soul
Forgive me...

The rays begin to shine through the ebony clouds
Bittersweet, as it warms my pain
I begin to howl
I reach out to your translucent silhouette and you flutter away
We exist within the very fabric of reality only as one...
