Between Voids

Baptised in flames A life of escape No gift in this curse Numbing the shame Along shame Choke regret Snakes manifest From the pride, a swollen stomach The bones now lay bare Life in defeat A vicious cycle of longing Come violent winds Come long knives For my pride a swollen stomach The cycles Lost in voids between voids Between the cage and the vision Break yourself free Bones bare longing for closure Downward spiral There is no beginning No end
