I stretch my fingers, a crack in the nerves

Spit has turned into tar

Try to recall my past, it feels unreal

Just an arbitrary ordeal

Pitch black, cowering

Eyes are numb, straining to see

Bent in half, shivering

Tactile pain in every cell

Silence, deafening

Smell of mold is the only thing

The mind unoccupied, racing

Movements emerge at the edge of the lid

A sharp white point

Above my head

Like a head of a nail

Circling around

Luring my sight

A reminder of a previous time

A piece of string

With a single last strand

Pulling up my head

I've become weightless

And devoid of form

One with the ground and the walls

Now, sensations return

Black turns to white

Now, my skin starts to burn

In a ray of light

It's weight is pressing me down

Onto the embers

I feel at home again

As the body is quickly melting away

I'm touched by grace

Blessed by the rays

Now, in this perfect warmth

Humanity subsides

Now, in the arms of the sun

I'm finally ready to die

Now, in the arms of the sun

I'm finally ready to die

Melting away

In the arms of the sun
