Ode to My Affliction

Dark shadows lurking all around me
They follow me to sleep
Blind mirrors pointed are all on me
Don't reflect anything
But my eternal curse
So shallow and unresting
I don't fight the sepsis
I let it fill my veins

I praise my affliction
I am too scared to heal
My castle is the temple
For all who are afraid to feel
I praise the violation
Against normality
Secluded in my castle
Deprived of humanity

Abandoned, moaning in my tower
The echo laughs at me
Ghosts of the past are all that I reach to
They won't speak anything
Oh my eternal curse
I cultivate and ingest
I am afraid of cure
Sickness is all I know

I praise my affliction
I have always been sick
Untreated I have become
The manifest of self conflicted
I praise the devastation
That occured to my soul
If I gave up on it
What would I be after all?
