The volition has passed to somewhere
That I can no longer reach
And now the grasp of agitation
Is all the sermons preach

Awoken with no zeal in sight
I take this breath with little hope
Undignified, I’ve lost all respect
These fingers slide across my throat

And to the ones who no longer see
Just what I bleed myself for
What I want is to be taken in
This I wish, and nothing more




 "It's my heart that pounds beneath my flesh
it's my mouth that pushes out this breath..."-FTE

nights: chillingly beautiful... i love it... the verse and rhyme are pleasing and well thought out... very good job... i commend you  

sincerely,
jerome the boy with no brain

 A savage place! as holy and enchanted
As e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted
By woman wailing for her demon-lover!
