reason

By Forsaken Me

so much in life falls
   as rain
            leaves
eyes upon a grave
   that is where everything ends
in death
   soon to be forgotten
released into darkness like a dying breath
   fading
becoming nothing but that void
   a wasted breath in sigh
this future into darkness
   an emptiness where there is no god
gone to a grave with no rituals
   a cesspool
for that is what my life
   your friendship and love was ever worth
this infested rose withers
   eaten
as worms feed down below
   where there is no longer reason
