Leech

Acid slaver burns through bone

Dissected and reanimated

Lips are sewn

Stitched to mute the outcome

Block the exit wounds

See through the face of degradation

Beyond what hides on the surface

Numb the ache

Dull the light and sound

It’s dragging me down

This isn’t war

For this is silent

Your pointe teeth

Left leeches marks in me

And I can feel it burning

Forever under my skin

Dissected into a thousand pieces

Corroding from the inside

Piercing the flesh

And burrowed deep

A host forever asleep

See through the face of degradation

Beyond what hides on the surface

Numb the ache

Dull the light and sound

It’s dragging me down

This isn’t war

For this is silent

Your pointe teeth

Left leeches marks in me

And I can feel it burning

Forever under my skin

The remnants of your soul depart

The cold frost of winter soothes the sting

Forever the leech is king
