Eulogy

Ok, it's no secret that I listen to a lot of metal music, so naturally, I have a large number of songs that have very dark titles. This piece was strung together with song titles on my iPod, set to resemble a eulogy written to show how a person truly was rather than the happy nonsense most people would receive, even if they were the worst person alive.

"Eulogy"
Scream now,
the Afterlife is all that is left For You.
in life, you were Cold,
caring not for the State of The Union,
nor for the Gunshot to The Head of Trepidation.
You chose to Swing Life Away,
steadfast in your Fixation on The Darkness,
as those you cared for lay Dying In Your Arms.
Even as you Break The Silence,
your heart was so Serpentine,
that As Daylight Dies, you remain Behind Closed Doors.
Now you Fade To Black,
merging into a land of Voices, with Nothing To Say,
standing Before The Damned,
no longer able to Hold On.
You were not Indestructible,
And now you shall wander endlessly Inside The Fire.


"Shade"
