Stuck in this hell

Scorn this mortal shell

Accepted my fate

Mystified

By my total disgrace

Horror

Death and despair

Is all I’ve ever known

Shattered

Lifeless and drained

Can’t stand my own reflection

Failed beyond reason

With my reckless conviction

Empathy fades

As the sun/ slowly wanes

I plough my own grave

Deep inside the sludge

Not to be found

My only refuge

Absent madness

That floods in my mind

Hearken the unlit

Hearken the unlit

Pierced by the dusk

I feel nothing

Void, cold and bleak

Save for the suffering

Horror

Death and despair

Is all I’ve ever known

Shattered

Lifeless and drained

Can’t stand my own reflection

I found myself

No longer craving this life

Useless, shallow and frail

Dust now covers my cold dead eyes
