To hold hands with your mind
As time gave a kiss to your cheek
Everything
Even the beginning of the end of the world
It's just
-so cold
Yet we don't try to light fires
We just
-break hearts
Break ourselves
And try to walk around with casts around our chests
And gauze falling out our ears
Because people say things that make our eyes cry
But oh do they make our minds weep
-and wail
Somehow through all of this
-this everything
The "so much"
We are just so ****** empty
-so ******
So so empty
It eats us out from the core
To the husk of our words
Biting into the back of our throat
Just to get
- a taste
Of soul

Having a soul
And acting so ******* soulless
That's your favorite pastime
It really does
- pass time
Unfortunately its past time

My feet will walk me through the iron wrought gates
I'll lay in my own grave
My desperation lowering me into the earth

Finally.

Something to claim me
-hold me
It won't let go
