THE MAD BARRON
WHY MUST I BE
​
Why must I be,
This unfathomable storm,
Waiting to see,
How much I shall unform

Trust in me,
Ruin shall befall,
Lust for thee,
Flames shall crawl

Why this curse,
False comfort given
An unending source,
Tearing down heaven

Open arms,
Warm and secure,
Slithering harms,
Wicked, not pure

A gaze of green and brown,
Enthralling at first glance,
Luring you to drown,
Leading with a trance

Heart meant for purity,
Lost without a guide,
Driven by insanity,
Host for suicide

Why this insufferable walk,
No end in sight,
Death now I must stalk,
To snuff out the light

Seek me not,
With flame alight,
Burning too hot,
A raging fright

Why must I be,
Empty and hollow,
Waiting to see,
If any should follow
