At last

I have arrived

My tired eyes survey this

Cancerous growth

A festering pool of worms

Sickening to behold

Reminding me of what was

And what becomes of buried dreams

Of reasons

I have but one

To rid myself of pain

Shrouded in black fog

I am beyond death

For those who seek pleasure and power

I'll make you beautiful

Beyond your wildest dreams

For I am he

The one said born of the gods

But I must ask no less a price

To dwell in you"

I

Relinquish body

Mind

And soul

My leprous skin and broken spirit

I

Long to see myself through your eyes

Not with compassion but disgust

Welcome

Death

I lay my mind to rest

My faults I do detest

At last

I fall

For those who seek pleasure and power

I'll make you beautiful

Beyond your wildest dreams

For I am he

The one said born of the gods

Long live our king"

Here I'll stay

I shall remain

The air is warm

The water sweet to drink

And here I'll stay

I shall remain

This wondrous sound

Envelops me
