Touch of numbness steal

Tears that run incensed

Pelt like bitter rain

Cool yet burning still

Hurt contains itself

Silence idles by

Moments flurry past

Trickling crystal haze

Blinding light betrays

Dancing off the panes

Soul reflection steep

Sharp intense I stare

Fingers shred away

Remnants of despair

Sound a painful beat

Heart retracts a drop

Truth which masquerades

Weaves hypnotic spells

Perils hound this earth

Preying on pure fault

Emotional fools

Led by pure instinct…
