the grief eats away at me
slowly devouring my insides
these parasites fight to survive
anything in its path is destroyed
my heart lies in its bloody remains
a victim to a crime left unresolved
there it is
a constant reminder of
the destruction that took place
my soul has been kidnapped
taken hostage
in an attempt to make me surrender
put my hands up & give into the
dark urges that plague me
the connections to my blood line
have been corrupted
no more lines drawn
right & wrong is hard to decipher
this grief has leaked into the system
hacking into the mainframe
a virus that consumes all
feeding until nothing is left
only traces of what once was
a distant memory
fading fast into the dark
until nothing remains
