Where Nothing Was Left - Slumber

Endless halls

deep bottomless corridors

where i have crawled through years of cold dead decay

reaching for something i could never hold onto

gripping around something so withering and fragile

i abused myself to a point where nothing was left

my days had become so gray and colorless

slowly the ashes where sweeping around me

falling deeper and deeper into dusk

now i realize my soul was tainted (in disgrace)

so hard a surface, yet so easily broken…

torn apart by truth and its sickening touch

words came out but were painfully spoken

i never knew it would hurt so much

so hard a surface, yet so easily broken…
