Death's Dream
Embracing dying reason
My consequence gave
The inactions, dying seasons
At least I can fade
I am a grave
I was never living
I’m too aware of the signs
The distractions and misgivings
Then again I’m part of my
Necromantic lie
I am the hunger and deception
Birth of my pain
So dark but so fluorescent
To be true is a game
I have no name
Destructive desolation
Reflecting eyes
Dead association
To deny
But then again it’s I
I am the never-after
I should not have been
Wide awake but full of laughter
Sarcastic from what I’ve seen
I am death’s dream
