from cursed light I draw away
and retreat back into my shadow realm
where I languish in the gloom
and fade into nothingness
my heart is a crozzled shell
and my blood is pitch
flowing sluggishly through corroded channels
I refuse the cup
let it pass from me
and be spilled upon the ground
where the dogs may come to lap with filthy tongues
I will not have your blood touch my lips
or cover me like a beggar's rags
I reject your worthless offers and spit upon your grace
I will shut you out and be rid of you
I will no longer bear your plague to seep into my wells
or your words to fill my ears
I am deaf to your banshee voice
my dead skin will no longer feel your touch
my mind, enveloped by the darkness
and sunk into murky depths
will remember your name no more
