The Price

Piercing his eyes

Scars you can't see

Cutting profound

Places you don't want to be

Climbing a mountain

Crossing a sea

Behind

The struggle has ended

Damaged mind

Already descended

Acting out

Striving to make me secure

The gutter parts us

From the rain

Up on the hill

Tough and alone

Perfectly filling

His desolate throne

Acting out

Securing me

Friendly betrayal

Somber delight

Treating his tumor

Without a fight
