Cannibal

Rising flames are what you have been

Insatiable hunger simply trying to feed

Of me; Your tentacles gripping underneath

My soul, waiting to finish me off for eternity!

But O fool! I am your lust reborn

Running and exhausting myself

Along the track marks left by your neurons

And round and round we go until I'm done.

So kill me now and kill me again

I am the undead that you kill every Fall

Bathe the ashes in a disguise of camphor

And the camphor will turn into ash once more.

Bhalo koira baajao go dotara, sundori komola naache!

Deep in a forest where roots feed on lies

Where darkness hasn't touched penetrating light

Resides a pond of unforgiving hyacinth

Where some creatures by birth feed on parasites.

And that forest lies deep underneath my skin

Through each of these veins the hyacinths breathe 

As hatred digs deeper with its roots everyday

Your love is way too thick for the cannibal's teeth.
