Barren Soul
At least smile at me
or lie
As you lead
me in the spiral down
And down
Down unto my demise
If not a smile for me, then you
Your triumph
Curl up your lips in a snarl
if that is your will
Even razors cut
Bullets tear flesh
Drowning steals air
Why do I shed tears of blood without a serpent’s sting
Look! I have surrendered
There is no battle to be won or lost
The victory is yours
Call for a celebration
You’ve stolen all that I was
Or would ever be
I do not try to run
Everything has been relinquished
Is there nothing you give in return
No
Not even now
You knew how this would end all along
Not a mystery No surprise
Just another one, nothing personal
They named you well, Indifference,
They named you well
