Two months ago I was certain I found

The man who saw through my bare, fragile soul

Today I fall, still did not hit no ground

My ashes dust around some fine, black coal

My fragile nudity could find no shame

For love was made in the most sacred ways

But my claims for love were both weak and lame

The seconds turned minutes, hours and days

The voice at the back of my head still laughs

For it found pleasure in my miseries

My tears shattered and back broken in half

In deep slumbers I get epiphanies

The nightmares go far away from the light

The nightmares find no peace in me tonight
