Ode to our empty abyss. Why must God bless That torn mistress. One man's treasure Is another man's forever. Indisposed, he can still Taste the musk on her lips. Holding all this hate inside, I surely will not live long. You can keep forever, And I will swim in darkness Undressed, lonely, and deprived. I will continue indefinitely Searching for light until I combust into shards of plasma. Just when I become bright enough, All I see is fire, And the ashes of the dead. These horrid depictions of mutilation. Drowning in these bloodied waters. In a day and age where we live till 80, But it will take twice as long To find anything steady. Forever stuck in my head. I'm ready.
