A small, burning shadow
Rolls off your tongue.
Casting away the light,
It pierces my chest.
My heart is impaled by sorrow
And enveloped in black fire.
The darkness grows within me,
Spilling out my life.
The blood in my veins boils
And filters out my pores.
A palpable black mist
Rises above me.
Void of life and hope,
I fall to the floor.
Unseeing eyes stare outward
Into the endless abyss.
