In this unconscionable soul rests a being Void of knowledge, yet engaging in life He has become stranded in his path Nevertheless, he knows where to go, but reluctantly does not follow The inability to stick with his logic has become a downfall Blinded by the subtleness of repetition He continues, unsurprised Caught up in his unrequited lust for more Sometimes, however, he finds truth in the greatest parts of his life But instantly the figure appears, blinding The figure haunts his memory As dark as it is, he refuses to release it Some unknown burden holds him closely Entangled from years of darkness Is it possible to even discover light? Or is he eternally traveling with bloodless hands, outstretched in potential? I find myself only able to whisper softly among the screams echoing in his head Is it worth your life? Without this burden you can truly find yourself Can’t you see what it has made you? Nothing more than a spec of dust in the ground Worthless, beaten down by others He placed himself in this state Continuing to wander, as he desires Hoping that in his brokenness he can bring life to something The only influence he has is the darkness that consumes his soul At one moment was change possible Yet once again he has turned away To find his worth in the loneliness of states Unable to find redemption in his hollow face
