I just can’t hold you anymore

These hands become the teeth

That gnaw at every waking nightmare

Every cold, bitter, final breath

Is frozen in tomorrow’s breach

All the love in the world I dissolve

All the pain I reflect in pools of tainted waters

I can’t look behind

Only leave behind

With arms outstretched toward the sun

And hearts uncaged

Like a needle through my skull

In the throes of midnight wanting

Bleed out and fall from light

There is nothing left for me here anymore
