carrion daydream (sick joke)

By denver nitze

how do you hold yourself up
when there are no strings
no hope
no future
.?.

..
only ever after
emptyness
dark
unholy
shadows
..



where do you go
when there is no home
no arms
no safety net to catch you
.?.

..
just having
demons
and shadow
'friends'
..



how do you sing
with no voice
no song
no story
no desire
.?.

..
spreading takes over
constricting
conflicting
burning
cancer
flees with voice
..



and why are we here
if only to question
and never be
answered
.?.




..
is this some
sick
fucking
joke
carrion
daydream
..

Also not just thinking, ..but believeing you will be ok,..here,...or there:)
