    Appetite Of A Soul
Cradled in innocent fairy tales
 Misery makes impressions on her audience
 Ever since ancient times it crowds the stages
 Every dream broken like the hopes of yesterday
 Victory seems sweet, when surrounded by defeat
No white flags when your enemy is within
 Failure’s voice seems so paternal
 Until you realize passion’s gift is eternal
 Growing sick of this realm , so we build our own
 No kings to serve only the appetite of a soul
  The snakes of corruption grow in number
 As the priests of honesty cower away silently 
With broken dreams castle walls are built
  Passion is ordained king and justly rules
 Making darkness a slave and joy is his prince

Depite the chage from first person
I might might have to kill you for your lines. Kings and queen are corrupt despots and liars. But they do make great symbols.

You really need to work on rhyme.
I strongly recommend you join Wesleys Rhyme Crimes workshop.

Very cryptic. One would have to know what your thoughts were when you wrote this piece.
