Eternal Torment

By Damon Tarloth


Demented sex is how we play.
Seductive look to catch my eye.
Common sense says to walk away.
Without danger there is no high...

Constant struggle, pleasure and pain.
We both have what the other needs.
Both depraved with a dark filled stain.
Sex and sorrow is how we feed...

I hate myself and her the same.
This Evil pact that we must keep.
These Dark acts are part of the game.
Our crimson runs from wounds cut deep...

We hurt each other just to feel...
This messed up sh*t gets worse each day.
Broken in ways that can't be healed.
Endless torment, the price we pay...

Our hate filled sickness will not last.
This nightmare always ends the same.
No way to heal my wounded past.
This twisted horror filled with shame...

All she offers is empty pain.
The passion, hate, and tearless cries.
Dark tendrils that constantly drain.
Break the bonds and sever our ties...

    What sickens and strickens us makes us stronger. When our flaws are written down is when we fall subject to making a change. I commend your strength. -bows Scholar

    When we look back to where we started; sometimes it's shocking to see the place we currently reside. We never would of thought to make the choices we made or the sorrow and pain that we would endure on that journey... Thank you again for reading and commenting on my words. I don't know why you have spent so much time reading and commenting, but you have my sincere gratitude... Damon T.

    DT - this was def a different kind of love from the sound of it. Two people re-inforcing perhaps the darkest and demented deviations in a mutual pact of destruction and revulsion. Never investigated that aspect of a relationship, oh well. Sounds like it works for you both; be well.

    Thank you very much for all of your comments. It's kinda funny that the ones you like are some of the least favorite in other people's eyes. Actually I guess it is evening out and bringing these closer to Purely Tainted,Sed Pain, and TINMTTWB. So actually that is a good thing :)
