In the dark..
held to the flame..
knowing that power..
laughter via insane..
half alive, yet half something yet untamed
fear of me, slowing you..
fear of I searing my pain
Light belies me noctourne desires..
Darkness...much to complacent
But I am.. and who are you?
and the dagger flashes forth...
Hand upon hand..
steel in flesh..
Heart in the void..
Once I tought innocense the blame..
but now I know...
Why the moth draws near the flame...
Circles of sanity..
Collar of guilt..
Crest of failure..
Cascades of lost ones..
Crescent of lies..
A dark wind rising...
Snuffing of what was left inside....
Then...the Dawn...

Hand upon hand..
steel in flesh..
Heart in the void..

I've had this steel in the flesh, it does drive home a point , so  to speak.
and Yes I like this poem also. very aggressive.

 I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.
