Decadence

Decadence

She lives in a world
Concealed by her lies
Blinded by her ignorance
Alone in her cries

She fell for him
Once he decided to go
Driving away her lonely dreams
No love for her to show

What is she hoping for
Lost between feelings inside
Clenching her fate in her palms
Remembering the night he died

She collapsed to the floor
With her heart in hand
Watching the blood seep through
On this sacred land

She laid their solemnly
Letting go of their past
Fading away slowly
For it wouldn't last

Everything grew dark
Her complexion grew pail
Lunging into her new future
Her eternal hell.

Achilles is an unknown quantity at this point

Overall, I say a good peice. Somehow the meter in the first stanza seemed out of place... (maybe I'm just in a picky mood). The pale-hell rhyme in the last stanza is a little off, but hey! if I can't think of anything better I can't complain. Spelling: pail=pale, their=there. As I said before, I thought it was good, and has a lot a potential.

By the way, welcome to the forums.
