Mortality
inside mortal tears
losing all that we hold dear
finding naught but fear
inside mortal souls
full of hate, and full of holes
die from mortal tolls
inside mortal hate
anger never does abate
leaving us to fate
human destiny
that we always cannot see
never sets us free
enslaved by our mind
we can never seem to find
eternal chains bind
we have lost ourselves
our eternal spirit delves
we have lost ourselves
we see only fear
grasping all that we hold dear
slowly, shed a tear
lost within, we scream without.
screaming without, we lose ourselves
