The Dark Pact

By Damon Tarloth


The time has come for you to pay.
The gate is broken, Now I come your way.
All that you are or ever would be.
Is lost to you and belongs to me...

Unbridled hate, Life's essence to satiate.
Horrific screams, Twisting your dreams.
Which is fake, What is real,
Your mistake, Was breaking our deal...

Don't Cry, Plead, Or carry on.
You die, They feed, You're gone.
Swift, Clean, The entire scene.
Once here, In haste, Completely erased...

Notes/Tips:
Try reading this at 1.5x - 2x the normal speed, using your own judgment to gauge when and where to do so, and I think my words will open up to you in a whole new way...
 
Explanation of Extra Caps:
(The Capitol letters after the commas are definitely incorrect. Sometimes I do it, and some times I don't... Usually for 1 of 2 reasons, or a combination of the two)
 
The first reason is to show an extra emphasis on the word or words, but still keeping them linked together within the same flowing thought, but also giving them their own identity at the same time.
 
The second reason is because I'm a very visual person, and I like how it looks with the extra "Caps"...

A person can only take so much, before they are changed forever...
