Becoming the Stench - Coldworker

That atrocious smell

Like a shadow in the dark

Always lurking behind me

Ever so rancid and stark

Dark thoughts cloud my mind

I can’t escape my fate

Something new is awaiting

Something new is taking shape

That atrocious smell

Piercing through my skin

Poisoning my flesh and blood

Taking over from within

So this is what became of me

Just a pile of stinking meat

Overwhelmed by the notion

Overwhelmed by the noxious reek

Converging through a transformation

To be one with that atrocious smell

My flesh — Liquefying

I’m falling apart — I’m becoming the stench

My blood — Vaporizing

Life’s vicious art — I’m becoming the stench

That atrocious smell

Evidence of mental death

All hope evaporates

With every stinking breath

Prisoner of the carrion kind

The sanity is decomposed

Emotionally dying

Emotionally transposed

My flesh — Liquefying

I’m falling apart — I’m becoming the stench

My blood — Vaporizing

Life’s vicious art — I’m becoming the stench

Mental putrefaction

Horrid chain reaction

Enters every fraction

… transposed

Host to something vile

Terrifying and hostile

My soul has been defiled

I decompose
