Outside - DAM

This evil burns me up, consumes me

Swallows me whole

And destroys the light that

Makes everything pure

Outside

A weeping echo of hate soon fades

Amongst the crumbling ruins

Of my shattered coherence

Bleeding, slowly churning onwards

Nightmares unbind

The turning threads of life

Demise of an identity

Moulting into obscure, tortuous convolutions

Locking into me

Throughout my chemistry

This wrath just waiting

Eager to devour

Outside

My saddened soul is noticing

Decay and carelessness

Ploughing wrinkles into the face

Of humanity

Turning

Turning all true will to age

Turning all will to destruction

As we all indulge in one last dance

Towards extinction

Sweet melancholy madness still finds

A tragic beauty to this decaying ensemble

As I reminisce upon the fallen beauty of the past

Its feelings fallen forever

To the starving void of time

Outside
