I’m holding my breath
inside a crystal cave
I’ve seen heaven
and it has cried for me
because I haven’t
been saved
I’ve been dragged
through the past
by a phantom
of No Worth
I’ve clasped pictures
I thought would last
but my memories
are scattered
likes ashes
upon dirt
I’ve been paraded in front of
each and every mistake
I’ve ever made
and now I’m being punished
because I left it all wrong
and made right the debt
which i believe
I fully repaid
So as I gather the air around me
to deny the presence
of the Ghost
of Never Ever
I think I’ll take
a moment
to explain
that I offered
and was denied
Forever
