the prophecy i made for myself all those years ago hasn't yet prevailed

my own maze of a mind the culprit keeping it from setting sail

my eyes sting and are almost as empty as the hole in my heart

the pit of what used to be childhood innocence has turned into a mirrorless counterpart

each path seems to lead to everything but the love and success that was promised

where i lay unmoving is an uncomfortable reflection of my life that is almous

my skin is almost as scarred as my view of life on earth

each battering glance another slash that has permanently imprinted on my worth

every tear that falls seems to soak my soul with some sort of feel

when night falls my blurred vision spins the death wheel

if only i could count the amount of fingerprints on my noose

but i turn a blind eye as the devil and i have seemed to have made a truce

when moon falls and my skin goes numb the spiders crawl in my veins

circling around each thought that my mess of a mind contains

i've accepted my lips will stay cold and loveless as my time of land decreases

no one cares to mess with the remains of such broken pieces

just like the whispers flow into my ears and do nothing but wrap around my nerves

maybe in the next life someone will hold me tight and trace all of my curves

but here my every breath means another day in which rejection tinkles in my soul

so maybe i should begin my long list of regrets on a tear stained scroll
