Written for another character of my WIP ~ Locked Behind Amethyst Eyes

***
Life’s a sin, I lived it well
Paid the price for which I fell
Every lie makes me rebel.

I wore the mask, I played my part
Helped you tear this world apart
Now you’ve left me in the dark.

So lets both go our separate way
Nothing to gain, nothing to say,
But I have debts I will repay.

This poison flows throughout my veins
My soul’s corrupted by its stain
Left alone to bear the pain.

Blood is thicker, so they say
Your blood will wash my sins away
Now let’s see how well you play.

The last piece to win the game
Helped me to see beyond my shame
I bend the knee to this new reign.

So farewell brother, farewell friend
One day I will see you again
And bring you too your final end.

I want to immerse myself in your fantasy style of poetry, Vera Anne. This poem and "Never" are my favorites!
