In My Grip

Hot night

Break-neck

Oozing into that thing

It seethes

It foams

It splits the death of love whole

All the things you hold most dear

Gone

And the world it dies

In my grip

All the world and everything

In my grip

Hold tight

It comes

Entry level, smooth and quick

To claim its wants

It need only put out its hand

All the things you hold most dear

Gone

And the world it dies

In my grip

All the world and everything

In my grip

And the world it dies

In my grip

All the world and everything

In my grip

Your mate

Your life

Everything you are and could be

It owns

It covets

It splits the death of hope whole

All the things you hold most dear

Gone

And the world it dies

In my grip

All the world and everything

In my grip

And the world it dies

In my grip

All the world and everything

In my grip
