The Fevered Circle

<br>Each day a mournful pity<br><br>Life looks upon you with scorn<br><br>Hopes life, visions elude<br><br>As your feeble breath is torn<br><br><br><br>Six sinister thorns of beauty<br><br>The claws of the nondivine<br><br>Our right to breathe<br><br>Our right to bleed<br><br>Forever denied<br><br><br><br>What some seek in the depths of the unknown<br><br>Need not be sought so far<br><br>Concealed it lurks behind<br><br>The truth of what we are<br><br><br><br>Each day a fevered circle<br><br>Life looks upon you with scorn<br><br>Six sinister claws of darkness<br><br>Strip your flesh to the bone
