I reject
The end is merely another step
Neither forward nor backwards
While the suffering sheds my dreams
Infected with a loneliness
An underlying ailing spirit
The waters rise again

Drown
Inhale the sea
Please shelter me from the fright of slumber
Collapsing spine
But I’m still fine

Awake to fall asleep before dawn
Stating the obvious
I rearrange my nerve cells so I can finally feel alive again
Hail the night
Where it is dark is where I will roam

You are drowning in distinct
Hallow but with grace and
A creativity that allows me to feed your thoughts
Until they make you rotten

Awake to fall asleep before dawn
Stating the obvious
I rearrange my nerve cells so I can finally feel alive again
Demystify my early grave
I will shatter myself there
