I offer up this last sacrifice
In word and flesh and deed
Against all the professional advice
In this bitter need
If you must require this caustic bend
And through this lens achieve your ends
I gladly say to you I will
Begone upon that hill
My blood sings soft into the night
Listened not by you
In faithless sorrows lack of light
Although I would be true
If you need atonement now
Though I be gone beneath the plow
I offer this relief
You still have your belief
I will sink into the dark
In endless twilight doom
You will go on to within your park
As if I never bloomed
You made me to a better man
More power to your plan
And though I lie in dreamless sleep
I pray to you my soul to keep
Excellent writing. For real tho.
