My Armor’s Rust—-—-—-—--
You re still a girl, I’ve been a man
I left you behind to get where I am
You blocked my road with lies and lust
Former dreams shattered by misguided trust
I gave you it all, but it wasn’t enough
Yet blindly, I believed, even through the rough
As ashes conjured, we dismantled to dust
Yet scars remain, as my armor s rust
Little scraps of ashes rise up in my lungs
Violent coughs to no avail, this dust remains strung
I tried for a time to find a remedy or cure
Eventually realizing it took your grime to make me pure
Though everything you represent gleam s with the devil s grin
It took you to make me human, you are my original sin.
