Pouring the acid rain over you
Burning your flesh to ashes
I burn with you till the last shred
Of your screeching rashes.
It smells like death
But I have to die yet again.
So I am pouring the acid
And melting away in this burning pain.
Counting the minutes in my mind’s clock
Till I get to see your bloodshot eyes
Spilling the cold blood over
Till your insides make their last choice.
I watch as you surrender
To the clasps of your alternate life
The life that I wanted to have control over
Which now finally, will be mine.
You had no worth as a human
Making mistakes as you went by
So I am claiming your every breath
And collecting your wounds side by side.
I was screaming all this long
Trapped inside your head
But you never cared for my voice
And walked away without a dread.
Now I have had it enough
You cannot take me for granted
Accept me, I am your own
Trust me, it will be worth it.
You never believed me
When I said you were wrong
Now you cry for your life
As I walk along.
Prisoner in your body
I was compelled to see you falter
But now as I rise from your ashes
I break away from your suffocating shelter.
Don’t you worry my love,
I am your life within you.
Yesterday you lived
Today, I shall have that privilege too.
All this long while,
You led a blessed life
Now it’s my turn
I too, want to be alive.
I killed you to see myself rise,
To separate the You from Me
Because a body cannot be alive
When the soul wants to be set free….
