Aftermath, with hazy ocular I realize I am back, sheltered now. 

Irrational paranoia swallows me. 


Suppress the delusion. My past gets mirrored when I'm there, 

a clandestine zone, a place I fear. Can't recollect these memories 

as things I have partaken in reality. A ruined focus a shattered 

view, I am transparent, cut and bruised. Answers nowhere to be 

found, what is this past I keep getting reminded of. 


Dissonant, with tremblind hands I cover my eyes, 

a touch of sense denied. 


Bound by suspense It's suddenly clear, I'll yield to the edge of the 

leaf thin steel. Fixated state on the artery, in the city of death I'll 

find peace and it won't haunt me. Desperately cutting without 

response, the blood keeps coagulate, refused by the reaper. 


With fester disdain I stay, disharmonic signals, source unseen 

A message I can't construe, a phantom cipher they speak. 


This beacon I must find, it's alive rooted deep inside searching 

for its light. I shall retort, hidden answers, I'll burn them every 

bridge just to stop clutching at every straw, I walk their stride of 

idle, death lurks everywhere, nowhere in my reach, refuge 

depraved, solemn they await. 


Irregular beats pounding me harder for each breath I take. 


With discern as I ponder, origin of the pulsating strokes 

Seduced by my own heart's foul language, a light there never was.

Falling deeper, time stands still as I fall 

Stranded to taste the void.
