Shadow of an Entity |
| Pain |
| Is at the forefront of my mind |
| For but a simple moment’s time |
| Although it seems to last forever |
| It will fade away with the wash of madness that fast approaches |
| My only fear is this: |
| Without the pain |
| What will |
| I become? |
| What will I become? |
| This instance of pain is my one and only memory |
| What brought me here to this moment in my history? |
| I know something happened |
| It’s something immense |
| Strong enough to erase the pages of my life’s story |
| When did I make the choices the led me here? |
| Where did I take the wrong turn? |
| Everything is wrong |
| I can feel it |
| I have become a miserable wretch |
| I’m left in a spiral of contempt |
| I hate what I’ve become |
| So I reach out to others, compelled to find compassion |
| Only receiving just a passing glance in judgement |
| This world around me; |
| a mirror of my wretchedness |
| Yet there’s one struggling glimmer of a thought |
| From within the deepest blackness |
| It claws at the edges of my sanity |
| Refusing to be sucked into oblivion |
| Within this vacuum in my mind |
| This tiny thought spins a tale of hope; |
| a seed of possibility |
| I know it must be false but I can’t relinquish it |
| It’s giving me a sense that there’s a purpose to this madness |
| It tells me: |
| «There is someone out there waiting for you to change everything» |
| An unrelenting notion that I must fight through this seemingly hopeless reality" |
| But is it just the needles and the glass |
| A catalyst for full blown insanity? |
| Is this world a perpetual winter night |
| Or will the sun one day rise on a precious summer solstice? |
| This hope is a plague on me |
| One last strand to hold onto |
| In the center of my being |
| I just want to let go of this thing |
| Release me from this reality |
| Unbind me |
| The fabric of my sanity is |
| Unwinding |
| Fragments of a prior existence |
| Float freely in the limbo of my consciousness |
| Not a single one contains substance |
| Just a ripple on the surface of a memory |
| Everything has been shattered to pieces |
| Separated by a void that I cannot comprehend |
| This purgatory is a fate worse than death |
| I exist as the shadow of an entity |
| The void has come to coalesce |
| Ruling over everything I am |
| That which is missing has left such an emptiness |
| That my existence has been rendered purely meaningless |
