Will it end?
My last will to withstand
Only ruin
Only sand
Whispering a final count
A final hour
Alas, it is beyond you
Outside of sense, or burden
Calmly awaiting the aftermath of our own hell, what we've justified.
Feasting upon our own guilt,
Til we've realized it's their last dawn, their last song
We've crystallized a failed excuse
A regret
Our worst fears, wilted through yellow air
Our last years, wasted
The children's tears
Unheard again
No words are spoken
Yet an iris always holds
A gaze, awoken
Til the memory unfolds
I try to see a light
Within flame
Sunburnt destined
We will fail
And all that will be left
Is nothing
If we fail
Nothing will be left
But smoke
The ends of the earth
With crumble
Beneath our feet
The seas will rise
As we all fall
Into their reach
Suddenly I trust the calm to disperse
Concerns compelling to rework
The steps that I take every day
To solidify or prioritize in a way
I can't expel or explain
All I want is change
Within me
Mirroring love lost fever dreams
Timeless sanction
Endure
Riveting lightless shadow strings
Within a sunken core.
