I have always found that putting images and thoughts in my mind to paper to be very cathartic. I've had this idea floating around for a couple of weeks, plus some feelings creeping back into my mind that I want to get rid of as quickly as possible.

While this may seem dark and morbid it is not meant to be. This holds a deep meaning to me - it helps me remember the mistakes of my past and to honor them so that I do not repeat them.

Lyrics are from Tool's "H"
These verses in particular are what inspired me:

"Venomous voice, tempts me,
Drains me, bleeds me,
Leaves me cracked and empty.
Drags me down like some sweet gravity.

The snake behind me hisses
What my damage could have been.
My blood before me begs me
Open up my heart again.

And I feel this coming over like a storm again."
