Black - Solstice

Deep inside this hole where no life sees

Emptiness surrounding everything

Deafening silence speaks, my ears bleed

Clotting remnants of emotion

Black

Loathing in my amnesty

Underneath lucidity

Drowning in the absence of

Conscious inner faith

Submerged in theology

Breathing in the fluid

Black

Swimming through the seas of nothing

Drowning in the waves of absent feeling

Choking on the fluid that submerges me

I can’t see beyond the colors

Of this blackened mind

Isolated deep within

Severed nerves feel nothing

Choking on the fluid that

is submerging me
