Venusian Altar

I lay upon a Venusian altar, the sacrificial lamb
Kneeling before this idol, a heart carved in stone
He is a cruel god that ignores my worship
And demands offerings that tear at the flesh of my heart,
Until all that is left is an empty shell
My mind dulled, my soul stripped of life.
I bow before this idol I call a lover.
My prayers fall upon arrogant ears.
I refuse - I refuse to bow down before him.
I refuse to worship this heartless diety.
No longer shall I light a candle of hope to this tyrant.
No longer shall I pray for him to end the drought within.
I refuse - I refuse to be the sacrificial lamb
I am the wolf.
