The Present
Wrapped in the paper of unrequited love
Tainted with the victims of Inferno’s blood
Sealed with a promise to endure ever after
A present that shall never know its master
Patient election in a crowded space
Several bodyguards to even the pace
Leisure departure in an open light
Oblivious to the pursuit of life
Phantoms quickly emerged from the shadows
Swift and skilled, an implausible battle
Fierce and eminent to show no mercy
Affirming death with instant courtesy
Wrapped in the paper of unrequited love
Tainted with the victims of Inferno’s blood
Sealed with a promise to endure ever after
A present that shall never know its master
