somebody's dungeon

Excuse me if I don't get up
I didn't see you come it.
Well yeah, I sensed a presence
just barely making it within
the walls I've placed upon my heart
to protect it from your hate,
so forgive the lack of manners
as you entered in the gate.

You see I'd had enough of you
your small mindedness and such.
I had to wrap myself in warmth
to stave off your icy touch.
With just words you'd pierce my heart
run it through with pain
I simply put up a barrier
so you'll never get close again.

You are just a ghost you see
a mere apparition now at best.
It was necessary with one like you
for my mind to be at rest.
You no longer get close enough
to inflict, impart, or effect
your invisible, a nothing
what else did you expect?!

Heh, this was a rather funny poem.  I think I'll keep it in my library, under dark humour.

"If history is to change, let it change. If the world is to be destroyed, so be it. If my fate is to die, I must simply laugh"

-- Magus
