I am the decay of life.
I am the infatuation that inscribes itself upon anyone I touch.
My hands are far to clumsy to be the holder of someones heart.
I consume your life and break your very being.
I am the crises that deliberately screws with your mind.
I can not be controlled and I do not wish to obtain solitude.
I am the horror in which you refuse to face.
I am whoever you wish for me to be.
You can manipulate me and transform my figure into something that you find satisfying.
I am nothing more than the exceeding brilliance of your own imagination.

Take this however you want to. I wrote it off the top of my head with no real meaning behind it. If you wish to delve deeper into the words than do so for your own self satisfaction.
