It's just the darkest day for who dwells in the light
As the horrid glance devoured his scorched hope,
He lays down his scepter; the murder denounced
Part of the blood-drenched wake, fading towards the shadow of the past
Seems like it's best to stop.
A statement brought by bleeding thoughts
I am what some thought untrue
But the truest part of the lie is me
Urging to be undone, these flaws adhere on crimson fears
Elevate this phase to justify the stings;
Seedless triumph, it's just for the dreaming dead
My truth has withered beyond redemption again
Each death of the day abides in me
We sail the seas of grief on a raft built with our tears
Endlessly drained by what satisfies life,
It's all long gone; soul-less at the take of the first breath.

This is really really good. I loved the lines
Each death of the day abides in me
We sail the seas of grief on a raft built with our tears
Endlessly drained by what satisfies life,
It's all long gone; soul-less at the take of the first breath.
They are great ending to a great poem. I also like the rythum of this piece. thank you so much for this fabulous entry.
