Chains of tears
Sickened with fear
As my journey fades
Sprouting wounds full of shame
Your skeletal exhausted hips
Praying at there reflection
Getting closer to slipping in the dirt
The explosive truth is unavoidable

Rain-less lips and disintegrating teeth
Your gaunt face that I barely recognize
Your bloodless eyes are rendering
I stroke your emaciated limbs
Trying to recall you in my head
You were so lovely
You were my home
Bones barely breathing
As the distance begins to climb
The years become fogged
As I'm swaddled  in this mystic cocoon
