It claims its victims,
one bite at a time.
Puncturing their veins,
******* out their inspirations.
They're dead,
and wondering the streets,
in search of things
long forgotten.
It's as plain as day,
as grey as old age.
It's an age old philosophy,
never to decay.
It prevails,
but nothing truly changes.
It stands tall,
but only handfuls see it.
Holding onto nothing,
life is suffering.
So it has been,
so it always will be.
If chosen to change
the landscape of an eon,
then eternity is nothing
but a miniscule point.
I am nothing...
So it has been,
so it always will be.
