Toxic

Crawl out from under the soil

Infested by a life long decayed

This toxic wasteland devours souls and takes possession

The struggle perpetuates an acrid relapse

At fault for succumbing to the veratrum

Left in solitude to atrophy

As acid rain torches the skies and seeps through bedrock

Infiltrating the veins, decomposing

Breaking every will to exist

Tormented by the severance

Burdened by the sentence

Fallow and insignificant

Bound to be subservient

Predisposed to wallow in the crushing sorrow

Trudging an incessant crucible of pestilence

Absent of any pathways to follow

Consumed by the subsistent ambivalence
