A Taste Of The Abyss

I tasted the lips of misery And she stole what little I had How heavy a toll I paid To have just a taste of the abyss Just a taste… Emptied, my only companions Are mourning and self-hatred, My lover, misery… She was too alluring to refuse Her offer of what lies beyond So I took her hand and held her close She showed me wonderful things And promised me eternity If I would promise eternity with her Just a taste… And she devoured me Just a taste… And all I've been left with is Self hatred… The only thing I wanted Just a taste… Of the abyss
