Scorpion

Scorpion’s dagger drives deeper
Than thought possible by witness
Does not care as he twists it
In my heart in time to his
Venomous hymns scarring my soul
A burden even in death
I shall hear his torments
Reminding how different things
Could have been once should I
Have surrendered to deathly tales
Be there no happily ever after here
On venomous dagger’s edge
Casting me out into ghoulish rage
And longing adorned by white shrouds
Billowing along watery shores
