Naught

It began so tense and acrid
You met my gaze greased in conflict
And the color of Mars...
Laid foul tongues on me with traitor's eyes
Poured poison in my ears with murder in your mouth

You've become the lie
You wanted others to believe
I cannot trust that you will let
Go and I cannot
Reconcile with myself
I thought there would be stars but we are truly abandoned

The feeling is dire
Urgent and sinking
Sinking and deserted
Deserted and sad

The dawn, blue as flame
Crosses me and the stars fall once more
I cannot breathe, I have no lips
No teeth, no vision

Troubled, wide awake and calm
I feel so strange this time
It's not the same as it was
I let the pain have its way
We've come to the third part of night
A single night as long as 100 years
We both mourn
I mourn for what has been
You mourn for what has yet to come
Sleep now, you black eyed pig
And fall into a deep pit filled with ghosts

To you, I am naught
To you, I am not
Without you, I am just a shadow
I quiet the mind...
... and now beings the impossible task of
Trying to forget

Try to forget
