The Prolonging

As you descend, I shall rise

Your demise shall be my conception

Your failure shall be my triumph

I shall feed from your decay

Your despair shall give me strength

As you degenerate, I shall prosper

Your misfortune shall make me jubilant

As you suffocate, I shall breathe

Repressed, your own mortality

Drunk of pitiful delusion

I shall be your parasite

Born from your imbecility

I shall tie your mortal limbs

I shall invade your thoughts

I shall belittle your aspiration

I shall obliterate your hope

I shall break your will

I shall devour your flesh

As you perish, I shall live

You shall drown in my contempt

Drained of life and all emotion

I shall be your eternal foe

I shall expose for ridicule

Your designs for your salvation

Liar!

I shall feast on your misfortune

I shall remember all your lies

Truth has never been of essence

As you devised your fallacies

Liar!

As you deteriorate

I shall create my kingdom

As you sink into waves of darkness

I shall find my brightest light

As you perish, I shall live
