The Contract of the Soul

-----------------------------

 

 

 

I stand here wondering

If I'll ever be okay.

He came along with these papers,

Just to sign, no cost to pay.

 

He offered me everything,

And I recieved nothing more,

Than a cold, dead body

Lying on the floor.

 

I wish I could take back,

That one little day,

Where he came along in my life,

And took something precious of mine away.

 

I have no longer the will to survive,

This life, just crying.

Feels like so many daggers have stabbed me,

Kill me now, I feel like dying.

 

He will never come back,

With more papers to sign,

Because I remember those frightful words,

"Your soul is now mine."

striking desperation. especially with this music I am listening to...

 

Anyhow, I like the use of language: mixing the metaphysical ideas with the ordinary, everday realities: "He came along with these papers" for example :)
