In search of tranquility Seeking revelation Achieve transcendence I need to travel deeper Explore the deepest region Into the peripherals of oneself Opening the third eye, I now see Alleviation at last, the stream Estuary to your mind Tributary to your heart Alive, you shalt make it out Seek the path to your wisdom The river to your psyche The river to your soul Open your eyes and see Finding the river that flows within

Wallowing within isolation Carnal lust for matter absent The world offers nothing Awaiting dissolution Descending into the depths Entering the beyond Sinking in oceans of worry Drowning in hatred for oneself Starve myself of contact Watch the world wither Left alone, I beg Flesh insipid Weight on my chest Your love, senseless Dig myself a grave Descend, descend, descend Into anhedonia

Osseous matter piercing through the flesh Ribcage entangling your lungs Choking on blackened mist and sludge Coming out of eroding insides Gasping shriek on endless plane Feel the surface excoriate Imprisoned, inhaling, asphyxiating Starve of light Corrupt your sight Gaze cannot recognize Conception of reality collapses Carving your eyes to see illusions Mind rotted to the core, devoured All conscience gone, you shriek Expelling blackened substance Abandon crimson remains Exhaling dusk and peeling veins Unrecognizable mass in your palms Eye the reflection of self Spreading illness that corrupted your own They all shall become

Standing, in a field of flowers, the sun, is setting Mild breeze flowing through the grass and my hair, a sudden presence A shapeless, invisible shadow covering me Am I leaving, or am I left behind? A hill far away eats the last bit of sunlight Darkness, as far as the eye can see, only embers left on the sky The night never ends, but yet, I still stand Confused, why did the light have to leave? There is nothing worthy of staying here, but I fear what I might see I can't decide if i want to die, ambivalence between the realms I breath in and look over the edge The breeze carries a scent of the sea Waves are crashing into the cliffside They're speaking to me Hopeless, I feel paralyzed where I stand I want so terribly to rid myself of these terrible visions of myself from the reflections of this lake Why was I cursed like this This shape isn't mine Touch to my flesh is nothing but numbing Maybe in the other realm, I will see myself The sun left a long time ago, never to be seen again Oh if only I could feel it's sunlight bathing on my skin Warmth on my cold bleak hands, swinging in the wind The same breeze that felt so pleasant earlier, now stings The grass isn't as green as they told me it'd be The crimson glares at me from below, as I watch from above I wished to ascend but only got a few feet high If only the view was as breathtaking as the one earlier Warmth on my cold bleak hands swinging in the wind Doomed to stay in this eternal night for I can't decide, ambivalence between the realms

Slowly Consumed alive By a great sadness Haunted by scars You cannot hide From your own shadows Shriek as they claw Help me survive Strangled by the phantom tongue Feel the pressure from the rope Spectral noose around your throat Strangled by the phantom tongue Feel the pressure from the rope Spectral noose around your throat Beastly Absorbed by time Mirage of blight Bleak hands hang high You cannot hide from the tongue Wrapped around our throats Where all light dies

Eyes dilate Floating in eternal abyss Obsidian depths Pulled from beyond Witness final breaths erode Desolate realm of nothing but death Fade away Submit to nothingness Disappear Inner being wither In this black Is this what it feels I am meaningless Without a purpose This desolate pitch black void Rotting aura withering unseen flesh Breathing in remains of other lost souls The blinding dark from the void sighs one last time as I, gently, fade away
