[bodytext] => Vaporous lights glare at Earth’s cocoon Blood palpitates Prosthetic arteries jingle in concavity Rain paints decay A portrait of rust Floods slip through cracks in perfection Twisted appendages shine brightly Feigning the sun Subservience in darkened ideals Trampled beneath waves Constructed upon ash Lights slip through cracks in perfection Eradication of this seal What once swaddled us Stars tortured by replications of their light Pale atmosphere takes me by the wrist I begin to drown Dull Placid Stagnant Vacuous Thin It envelops me Like a sea of obscurity Our barricade to the other side Asphyxiated vagabonds Lonely wanderers Yet how I long to be with them Between the skies Darkness erodes the clouds, A violated hue Black silhouette of our moon, Obscures the new (It cringes in its hold) Darkness erodes the clouds, A violated hue I feel this world’s canvas peeling... and falling through.
