Fade into Darkness

There is no old wound that cannot be reopened Poisoned and dying, bitter and cold Distance denied despite alienation A retrospective lesson in mistaken validity Reaping the consequences Devices of my own machinations Despite the plans of the wicked Despite the foolish and their folly Fade into darkness Escape I hold Fade into nothing In stillness, out of existence Hollow weakness, monochrome dementia Sick of mind, sick of body The thinness of perceived connection Now longer can be ignored
