Man,

If you are bold enough;

Look me in the eyes,

In the eyes of Despair.

'

Are you stunned?

That I have decided to speak up?

At long last?

'

Man,

You were bold enough

To devour me

And rinse your dark insides.

'

Despite my vile inducing properties

You never cared about yourself

Or about Me.

'

I am Despair

The Queen who come up to her subjects

Once in a year

Like the Queen in fairy tales.

'

A Queen is to be respected

And a Queen never shows her face

Every second and every hour and every day.

'

You hauled me from my Throne

Whenever you pleased

Turning me into a worthless

Pile of goo.

'

You called me a Cigar

You called me a Drug

You called me Heaven.

'

I gave you pleasure

Whilst I had to be in contact

With your ugly innards

Choke strangling me to death.

'

The smoke you consumed

Was more than the smoke

A cigar could provide in a day.

'

I am Despair!

And look me in the eyes

Young naïve Fellow of a Man.

'

I am Despair

The Queen to be treated

Like a Queen.
