Stand in Defeat - Maruta

Standing in a pool of my own cruor

Where tears, piss, and gloom coalesce

Knee deep and immobile

I stand and watch in anguish

I cannot advance to you

No good outcome to derive from this

Fixation on the negative

Wash it away with sulphur

Scraped bare to the bone, and ground in to dirt

Purged, empty

Boy with hollow eye sockets anchored down with nails of lead

Moth with torn wings

Fading, unable to lament

All is lost and obscured

Standing in defeat

Fixation on the negative

I wait for the end

So distant, I cannot advance

I pray for the end
