Description
decadent cravings with darkness sustained,in decadent meetings with decadence stained.
in decadence, spiraled, i lost all control,
and decadence stole all my decadent soul.
decadent evenings with decadent blood.
consumed in the throes of such decadent love.
immortality! oh, such a decadent life,
bereft of a conscience and lacking in strife.
decadent nights fade to decadent days.
in decadence, i am eternally chained.

decadence…state of decline
”i am eternally chained.” as your stated under sigh
my dear sir…I have read and steadily admired
all your written work here at DA…and I have
for sometimes now…wanted to whisper
how much you have intrigued and lullaby my heart
to sleep…when sleepless I was
how significant that under such circumstance
you were able to sooth weary soul…it would only means
that being chained in decadence…your greater self
have emerged and have won heart…like mine
they say…”the darker the night…the nearer the dawn”
beneath the full moon you howled while her tears glistened
