Rendered
I have been upon a quest
eluded by smoke eyes
bone choked
ground to dust
Once it was left to dead
lit upon the pyre
ash to ash
Smeared in the sagebrush
thought this would be enough
slathered in lies
burned my skin
Lost in an obsession
seeking certain freedom
gnaw the bone
sever the tendon
Put the brand in my own hand
Never thought to question
Never would ask why
Watch me melt
in your desire
laugh till I cry
cry till I laugh
I had a taste of it
acid on the tongue
you bronzed me in gold
render flesh and bone
Immortalized in pain
was your only wish
eyes grit in sand
dirt upon my tongue
Buried in the desert
up to my head
peal back the skin
Quill in blood ink
with last breath I write
Bitter is the end.
