Breath Behind the Shadows
I lay my memories down,
On this forsaken path,
It was starting to bleed,
I sit alone in the room,
Night after night,
Calming myself against nothingness,
Which refuses to show its face,
I lie in a patchwork of the impossible present,
And the invisible future,
Into the wreck,
The fear well travelled,
I end where I started,
With the chase inside,
Left to even with the jungle,
Where we made the mistakes,
Headed for every gate,
The road burnt onto my heart,
Let me control the sunrise after,
The echo of the fall…..
