Closer to emptiness

~ Closer to emptiness ~

Alone once more, suffering in grave silence,
Miles of depression slowly drift,
Another tempting blade calls,
I can only succumb so this haunting memory.

Darkness consuming, blood washes deeply over my soul,
Now left with only disappointment,
My thirst still apparent,
No longer do I feel release, I no longer feel.

A distant echo, beckoned by my breaking heart,
Wounds grow further,
Scars become my second skin, my battles lost,
Numb once more, blood no longer satisfying.

As time flows, emotions are lost,
No longer do I ache for happiness, I only ache to feel,
A black void,
Slowly swallowing my only existence.
