Forsaken Space (04)

Billowing as the wind,
morbid tales of one man’s sin,
cloud around the haze but when
the man stops to breathe it in,
the delusions begin yet again.

Loose the tongue to fill a void,
feel the empty embrace.
The love will wither and die,
but our sins will grow and grow, 
within this forsaken space.
