A Poem by Wraith.

I am the one who is wrong
wretch, scouring blindly into nothingness
Flesh obscured by purification of ages,
To bare the burden of eternal blackness,
Is this what it means to achieve catharsis
Air turned stagnant, soiled and sullen
Further down this nest the air is scarce
Organs turned dark and riddled with abscess
How I long to writhe with the maggots
Marrow weakened, scraping the abyss
Gaunt fingers clutch longingly at the dirt
But your time is up and the earth resists
The last of cold flames have ceased
Now eyeless, a deformation you abscond alone
Sculptors of loss on their knees await you
Scorn! You've ruptured these networks below
If only you knew what was waiting all this time
beneath your very feet, you would be made to crawl like ants
as the last of your skies faded to black
