Une Annonce - William Control

In what mindset does our character lie?

If the stitches that bind the fabric of our soul shrivel up and fall to pieces

Can one say with absolute certainty

That he who was once filled with noble virtues

Might suddenly be converted into a monster so beguiling

That even his own shadow cowers in fear?

I have become that creature

A charming, vulgar, silhouette of my former self

This-guised among you as one of your peers

Waiting for that perfect moment to reach out and procure your soul

If you cannot view the intentions of a man by the look in his eyes,

two single heart beats after your first encounter

Then you have no business calling yourself a queen

I know that some of you may balk

Yet some may find the earnestness of your creation

The sky will open up and you will indeed be able

To observe a brand new world right before your very eyes

I have already given you my permission to shag

And it’s my hope that you have used that permission to your advantage

Ladies and gentleman, what more can I say?

I woke up in a city unfamiliar, I did so out of fear

On the ground lay my insides

I picked up the courage, determination and forgiveness

From that pitiful bloody mess

To find myself and to discover the truth…
