Empress (of Rancor)

Driven to tears while being sucked dry

Beaten down, exploited, left in bits

No hint of self seeking, cold hard facts overlooked

While the ritual of disgust begins

Premeditation, no trace

Rigid execution

Of plans severe

Trust overlooked

While draining emotions

Avoiding with grace

Concerns unanswered

Slowly, methodically, breaking bonds of blood

Gown of tradition, splashed with crimson

Hidden deep in the belly of hate

Black widows bite dealt with precision

Trading her body in the pretense of love

Prevention of instinct

Survival never a second throught, submit

The wall to survive, buried absolute

Avoiding with unanswered

Hanesty betrayed

The struggle for breath begins

The web is spun breath begins

Never to let the children see the

Gown of tradition, splashed with crimson

Hidden deep in the belly of hate

Black widows bite, deaaalt with precision

Trading her body in the pretense of love
