Regrets and mistakes riddled
In a fading abyss
Where services long past rest
Are shackles at the soul’s behest
Crawling in the ashes of perception
False comforts ring as hollow realities
Bound, unbreaking, unyielding
To withering ideologies
In the demagoguery of fears
Hearts are burning so bright
When their truths are set alight
Never to cross the surface in their plight
The detriments born of desire
Create the fuel to a new kind of fire
Seizing the boundaries
Consuming rationality
In decisions to face
Creations belie
The beauty and foulness
Where reflections
Of imperfection
Die
