Entrapped in elation
A sublime enervation
A war of attrition
Between bond and volition
Delightfully insipid
Caressing death
The clock ticks away much to my dismay
This stalemate hurts
I only fight in spurts
As I wrap my arms do I embrace or choke?
Our souls
Drifting space and time
Unbound
Everything ends
But why do I deny?
This impenetrable crust was formed
Mere child, weathered and stormed
Broken at birth
A genetic curse
Bequeathed addiction
The source of affliction
Nothing can stop this hunger
Oh God, what is it I long for?
I damn this desire to learn
Yet fire conspires to burn
Our souls
Drifting space and time
Unbound
Everything ends
Yet why do I deny?
The lie
Like a split atom
Or lost at sea
Resist the urge to retreat
Unto the corpse of a dream
Squirm, struggle and wonder
Think not of asunder
Perish the thought and slumber
A sublime enervation
A war of attrition
Between bond and volition
Delightfully insipid
Caressing death
The clock ticks away much to my dismay
This stalemate hurts
I only fight in spurts
As I wrap my arms do I embrace or choke?
Our souls
Drifting space and time
Unbound
Everything ends
But why do I deny?
This impenetrable crust was formed
Mere child, weathered and stormed
Broken at birth
A genetic curse
Bequeathed addiction
The source of affliction
Nothing can stop this hunger
Oh God, what is it I long for?
I damn this desire to learn
Yet fire conspires to burn
Our souls
Drifting space and time
Unbound
Everything ends
Yet why do I deny?
The lie
Like a split atom
Or lost at sea
Resist the urge to retreat
Unto the corpse of a dream
Squirm, struggle and wonder
Think not of asunder
Perish the thought and slumber
