THRONE

you win world
all i ask is that you let me
sing my songs of defeat
as i go down with the ship
and i’ll take all my shit
with me into the abyss
where i am happiest anyways
leave all you beautiful winners
dancing in the sunshine
while i drink georgian wine
with my vampire friends
as we play our old violins
and broken pianos
songs about
death and time
remember those moments of bliss
when we had it all
even had the one
who had all we ever wanted
go out in a blaze of glory
knowing that i gave it my all
but now it’s time
to surrender
to the gods
my life is now
in their hands
my will is theirs
i am a vacant body
in a sea of ghosts
let their songs be sung
in my songs and poems
thank you world
you have been good to me
we shall meet again
when i am ready
to reclaim
my throne.
