In the mirror's gaze he saw his fading breath,
Each heartbeat feels like footsteps drawn towards death,
He counts the seconds drowning in despair,
The rope of time became a noose he came to wear,"What is life, but a slow descent to airless rest?"
"Do Gods not weep for the souls they cast aside?"
"Or is Heaven's light just a flame to burn the blind?"
~ Sapphirus
