Desperado

father said pain shall always go

briony.

but she's so young, albion.
she's strong, my love. she needs to grow up if she wants to survive.

stand or unless you'll fall.
briony, dear, wipe your tears.
sharpen your glare, count your kills.
remember to never accept their mercy.
don't look back, they'll only seduce your head.
father told me to do whatever he says.
trust his commands, nautical sailor of their death.

knew this life since i was 3.
what is a life when you anticipate its ending?
pulled a trigger when i was 13.
i watched as my thumb would bleed.
father healed it for me.
don't be scared, my darling briony.

the demon always favored me.
pretty little sight to see. she'll be handy.
father placed a trust in me, mother pitied silently.
told me not to fail, you see.

but now my victim is sleeping in the same bed as me.
