Morphia - Fallen

Relieve the ache

This endless craving for unattainable matters like

love…

A heartfelt smile

Relighting of the fire that once burned

…Or just simple meaning

Could I dull it all by removing feeling?

What would it be like?

And would the price be too high?

A life for peace…

Tears for still waters

Oh sweet release come hither

Drowning in desire for things that can not be

So then, feed me morphia

I let go of all

Anything but the yearning that stings so relentless

Better the dead numbness than whatever beauty melancholy

may host

Still it is with fear I lay down my swords
