by Nick Gisburne
You once controlled me; now you never will
Today I took that energy away
Beside me, broken, cold, forever still
Your lips, at last, have nothing more to say
I see the rage, the hatred in your face
The fury you were saving there, for me
Of all the dark emotions in that place
Were these the ones you wanted me to see?
Our lives were drenched with danger, by design
Outrageous highs, and devastating lows
But in your heart, your spirit, and your spine
Were demons, too appalling to expose
If murder was forgiven, for a price
I’d pay to bring you back, and kill you twice
