Icarus

The hangman

There’s a hollow place
Where your heart belongs
Its vacuous emptiness
Drains all compassion
Consumes without satiation
No hope for peace
When you are near
No rest no respite
Your ego won’t have it
 
You bite and devour
But keep me alive
To once more in the future
Take all but my life
Your anger and hatred
You mask in guise of love
And torture with impunity
Any that question your drives
 
It’s hopless and tiring
To live by your side
And so I am leaving
A safer and place to find
 
Youve robbed me of the
Love that I shared with another
But the safety of loneliness
Is much better than the despair
Of the dungeon of your love
