Empty Eyes

Paralyzed in darkened corridors

my numbness weeps

malignant goodbyes echoing.

A waif cast in the wilderness

empty eyes staring

at my reality of nothingness.

Obscurity hides behind my mirror

weakness in a thousand faces

my mind floating in nowhere space.

Bubble wrap boxes my soul

In a shallow drunkenness

a rolling wash of crushing tides.

Barren cold and thickened walls

opaque veils with dying accent.

Weakened thoughts bleed

in crimson sanguine drops

onto the sterile floor

of my existence.

I am but a stone on the ground

That never learned to feel.
