Innocents Lost

My innocents lost at an early age 

That innocents, replaced with rage 

An anger i could not control 

As darkness moved into my soul 

Emotions now so hard to show 

This stranger most will never know 

Behind my mask, no one can see 

The hurt that torments me 

I know I'm good, i try so hard 

But everything i have is scarred 

I break the things i love the most 

To feed my inner, darker host 

And when I'm left with only pain

Contentment rears its head again 

As losing everything i own 

Is all i've ever known 

The Darkness of a Serial Killer

When the killing starts

There is no mercy

No remorse, or regret... Only pleasure

I am not a butcher (So to speak) 

Neither am I a soldier

I am a monster 

I am an architect 

A maestro  

A composer of the maddest symphonies (No sympathies)

The darkness my only friend 

I am saturated in it (Inside and out)

It is my cloak

My hiding place

My sanctuary  

Without it all would be blind 

As light would only show the truth 

That in reality, I am merely a man 

Yet that reality, is a lie 

Day time is a place of smiles

False grins and false salutations 

But in darkness, there is only fear 

As monsters only come out at night 

And how i love the night 

It protects me in its shadows 

It comforts me in my crimes 

It lets me do what i do best... Kill
