Arrest

Chained to an arrhythmic murmur,

The flutters of a fleeting pulse

Redemption from resentment, I evolve

An immutable rest from the echoes of these aching thoughts

Out of embers of death, I'm reborn

An archtitect of my own demise

A conscience that I despise

A conscious breeding, a cannaballistic parasite

Gluttony fuelling me

Piece by piece, I confide

Forage the shards, piece by piece

My shattered fragments

Remnants of a broken man

Staring back at me

I'm sinking deeper

Through the sin I seek

An eternal veil to arrest this frail mess of mine

Mess of mind

Forage the shards, piece by piece

Remnants of a broken man

Staring back at me

Arrest
