Where Daisies Bloom

By HumanMonstrosity

A spectral terror shown on cold mirror waters, Dreams metamorphous into nightmares under a star flecked sky
Follow me over treacherous landscapes, through intangible shapes, and the melancholy textures known as life
Look at the deadly sigh on this face, A shadow of yearning has awaken in this beast
A plague among flowers eviscerating all signs of normality
Deeds glorified by misery and lies, A worthless soul vexed to exile
Hear this voice from the forgotten hollow where flames lick butterflies
Watery eyes watch as bloodstained hands hide beneath a cloak of smiles
Revenge on liars are these words of wrath, Blades of truth cut the flesh as poison seeps into the wounds
Consumed by the tongue of fire are these wretched souls with no rewards for wasted lives
Regret bound to their eternal faces, Now laid to rest where daisies bloom
