Why am I here?

Why do I fear?

A jab of a knife

My end could be

Near

Where has it fled?

A flicker of true want

It’s killing me so

The loss feels too gaunt

It’s drowning me now

Blue, thin as ice

Reality’s red fang

Got me livin off meek rice

In a cold, rundown dune

Crouched low from all my

Dreams

Living on the other side

Is not, what it seems
