The Hermit

Dooooooomed!!!

As i sit in the darkness
i stare into the fire
life is slipping through my hands
loss of all desires
in misery forlorn
as my eyes dissect
all the deceit

The chasm that which is my soul
spews forth the blackest of bile
eons of betrayal
i see in a world of the blind
lies are revealed nothing
can be hidden from me
i play the fool, i do it well

I weave the strands of fate
entangled with my hate
my lonely screams are
unheard............forever

Suffering eternal
i leave you all my wrath
the dream has died
the pain exposed for all to see

Body grinds to a halt
strands of hair come undone
i look at my feeble hands
where has it all gone
surrounded by my riches
meaningless artifacts of the past
unable to stop the looming end

Vile realities burn my sight
as all i held dear
crumbles to dust before my eyes
in darkness and loneliness
he shall dwell

Dwell....... alone

Solo: Lament of an old man

Regrets i have naught
for none i have respect
until death i bow to none
hatred warms my cold heart tillt he end
my minions shall destroy
those who got away
fiery eyes burn with hate and desire
he walks the path
where solitude is his companion
in silence he exacts his revenge
my victories are bitter sweet
my eulogy shall be brief
in darkness to ponder
in death to live forever!

My path before me
the clouds now lift
cold ageless eyes stare

The end... it is here
