Boy King

Wearing the earth as a crown, You beckoned forth starving souls. "I intend to save the world" Your smile as hungry as your ego, We ate like dogs from that outstretched hand.

What Clouds Conceal

When I saw clouds, It was only smoke I felt thunder Shaking ground as you spoke Lightning shot through me With each pretty word, But laced in those lies, Venomous truths went unheard Uncoiled, unbroken, Blackness lain bare Seeps into the organs I left in your care A byproduct of you, Your crumbling guise, I collapse under weight Of your coming demise Flames licking higher The bow of your lips Charred from your feet To your fingertips I'm burning, too, Though I tried to flee If you are the storm, The fire is me
