The Death of Life
By alesana
drain the life from this planet
empty eyes on every face
soulless
men wandering barren streets
hope has failed us once again
love
has been torn from our very existence
weak first steps on dry soil
nothing left to make it worth it
sun has given up on this
pathetic
excuse for a sentient race
suffocating us with shadows
burning
us with ice
carefully carving out our hearts
we have no use for
them now
this is all we will ever have a gain
this is the death
of life.
