what is my mind

0 0 0
                                    

Blanks bore holes in my mind

Yet my thoughts rush to fill them in

Please dont be gone

Why is it that footsteps lead away

Pull back the corners of the world

And tether them once again

Nothing seems to stay

Why is it that paths always change

And now everything twirls

The world is shattered

Shreds of mirrors hang around

Shadows sneak away

Why do they never stay

Who will remain

Blood soaked tears

Are unbecoming yet

Torture is a seed

And weakness is my drink

My thoughts are torment

And yet their eyes still keep

Whose eyes cannot yet see

Tell me your name

And hold me in a trance

I dont wish for answer

I lust for blanks

But blanks are meant to refill

Now follow my steps

Hush now gently swing

Everywhere are fragments of me

Slowly, slowly sleep

And let the silence fill me

And knowing eyes never reach me

Let darkness be all I see

Enlightenment is a lie

And ignorance is my pride
