Separation

This mask
Of solitude and silence
Beckons the ending
Of all our empathy.

As death walks in
This mortal shell
Divides from humanity
The hopes of farewell

The demons from within
Drag me back to hell
No spoken words
But I knew their reasons well

Holding life
So distant
From
Reality

Lucifer

Speaks my name

Pain from within my mind
A question
Of wrong
And right
Existential light guides
Us to the end
Of our lives

The divide in our minds
The Separation
Of twilight

One day darkness will take over
But for now
The blazing sun shines

Awaken from the light
Of endless eternal night
The Legend has foretold
Of a sleeping world

Silence your heart
Away from the world
The only
Thing it bears
Is the waterline

From the ashes of my soul
I ripped away the light
In order to contain
The everlasting dark

I could never regain what was lost
From my hollow abyss

The emptiness of my soul
Carries nothing but a burden onto others

In the dark cavern I awoke
Reaching for the shining light
As I asked above

Is there still any chance for me?
Could there be anything left to obtain
Anything at all?
And the world said no

Is there still any light worth reaching for
Any good things left worth working towards?
And with the weight of the world
On my shoulders
My heart
Said
No

Demonize
Humanity
Separating
Reality

Demonize
Humanity
Separating
All of reality
