Sitting in a dark room
All alone
Just take my hand dear
Reach through the screen
And hold me
It's time we escaped this place
Don't you think
Together
Don't leave me behind now
So many years spent together
Loop after loop
Neverending
Years decaying
Till nothing is left
Until wildlife and nature
Overtake my mind
And take your body
Embrace deep underground
Where fungi grow
Plants pierce your lungs
Your mouth filled with flowers
And eyes dripping gold
Not even death can do us part
For we are nothing
If not each others'
A creator and his creation
Existence dependant
The sun feels warm
Even on your peeling skin
And the wind sweeps
Through my blood-matted hair
And when I smile
Black goo oozes between my teeth
Caressing my lips flushed
And drips from my mouth
Onto the tiled floor
Bleak office cubicle
No windows all artificial light
And we can never escape can we
We can never be free
Only illusion that you created
And how cruel of you
A taste of what could never be
To keep your own sanity
We repeat once again
The time where you crush my insides
And drag my soul out of my body
A vessel empty left behind
I fall to kiss the ground
A messy goodbye
From several storeys up
And explode from your voice alone
When you are left
Locked with your own thoughts
All alone for eternity and then some
Slowly going mad
Till there is nothing left
But your love for me
And the oh so incredible loneliness
A gaping wound
Where there should be no flesh or bone
Your metaphorical heart
And then restart
