I don’t want to wash away the black

You look to me for forgiveness!?
I am not your priest
I don’t want to wash away the black
The cruelty, your mistakes
You wronged me. Remember?
Oh, you were confused
Yes that explains all
Forgives all
Or does it just help you to forget?
Putting your lips at ease
So you can kiss again
And to speak of imaginary love
No, I never wanted this
To let love spoil inside me
Yet holding it for so long
Has made me bitter
Your love was like a trap
Now look! For it has snapped!
And I lay inside
Twitching, nearly dead
Wash away your own damn sins…
