Isn't it strange, how I used to hate your hidden canvas face? To me your perfect skin hid a demon, a demon covered in pustules, your eyes were nothing more than a portal to a rotting soul. Your words were nothing but trapped and recycled verse, spoken only to lure innocent maidens into your coveted dark lair of love. Of love and broken hearts, I used to picture you feasting upon them before leaving those girls, abandoned, in the desert to rot. To become the faeces of vultures and other scavenging creatures...
     So, isn't it strange how I let you drag me down into that den of despair? Then again, what is life but a count of three? A lost stare in a crowded street?  A forgotten love song played on the radio? Why do I take in your dusty words?
     Ah, but why do I ask questions? I need not ask, for I trust you implicitly. Thank you, for you have warped my mind and framed it. Perhaps you've placed it next to your painted soul, in an attic, locked away.
     Maybe old truths were lies, maybe old realities were fantasies. Or, perhaps more likely, I too have joined those other hearts in the vulture's stomach.
This hasn't got much to do with Dorian Gray... more to do with vulture shit to be perfectly honest :shrug:


This is what happens when someone tells me to write a description of a supermarket :XD:
