I shot you last night.
Ceased your life in a flash of death
I gorged myself on your flesh
taking all I wanted and leaving
waste.

The slaughter I reveled in
was in vain for the most part.
I was not hungry, nor in need
I merely wanted to end you
quickly.

I sat down today and reflected
on the violence of my act
my hand reaching like a bullet
my words butchering your soul
unknowing.

As I thought of my failure
to be the man you so deserve
I prayed for the strength
the true strength to fix it
finally.

I know my quest for your joy
will hurt you just a little
as you are faced with my trash
I leave behind with this final
bullet.

Aegri somnia

Yesterday is ash, tomorrow is smoke; only today does the fire burn.
