...Egocentricity

By SolApathy

 Enter the fear of the thoughts that linger here
Into the broken nomenclature of a dark mind
Broken and looking to bind and transform into the unkind 
I repair with your increasing dispair
Once I’m finished; only hatred you will find
Take kind in the remembrance of what I’ve done
The twisted smile I flash; as I know what is to come
You know not what game you play
Or the cost to come if you lose today
Rigged as ever
I’ve lost
Never
Pleasure your thoughts with rewards you can never earn

Your egocentricity fuels my machine
I will grind you; take you to extremes
Break you of your will and still I will not have my fill
Inferno of antagonism and false dreams, seen
Through a magician’s manipulations of thoughts and time
Before you know it--You are mine
Broken and ready to be born again in original sin
I will take you deep within the labyrinth of twisted dreams & others screams
Teach you to enjoy the inverse of everything once kind
Blind and numb of the malevolent force you have become
Burning in the pleasure of others pain
I see the flash of your smile and know
Nothing kind
…Remains
