The reason for struggle
The reason for pain
The reason for guilt
The reason for regret
The reason for damage
The reason for loss
The reason for poverty
Instability runs rampant
A consistent fault leads to an inconsistent life
Which in itself becomes inconsistent
Consistent uncertainty
Consistent insecurity
Consistent depression
Consistent anxiety
Consistent imbalance
Consistent fault
Consistent lack of...

Will I leave a note of my ideation
Or a mystery to keep them up at night
A eulogy looming above all thought
Clouding the conscious with memory
The bottom of the barrel has rotten away
Comfort in the soil where I decay
Still bothers me beneath my nails
I won't ever be clean
The hole is getting darker now
Dirt ingests the light
Like these pages absorb pain
Blood dripping from a blade
Anguish in physical form
Exiting my veins

Torn between selfish and selfless
Pulling of guilt and acceptance
Sick inside for receiving anything
Struggle in the choice of independency
Internally failing
Beyond desperate
On the brink
Distressing
De stress me
Extinct
I want to be
Nothing
Will bring me peace
And when nothing is attained
We will not know it
For existence ceases
And extinction is ceaseless

Wanting to confront ontology
Overcome the nature of being
Only to be one with nature
Comfort in the dirt is cosier than the truth
The truth makes me weak
The truth makes me helpless
The truth is cold like a razors edge
Inflicting pain and omitting warmth
My struggle does not make me strong
My survival does not make me brave
My survival reminds me of the hurt
Inflicted pain and omitted empathy

Doesn't matter what your intent
Always goes worse then you expect
Pieces fall to pieces
Neck deep in rubble
Heart turned to ash
Skin coated furrow
Structural damage can't be painted over
Those let in can see
Won't they stay and rebuild
Won't they stay
And rebuild

Deep enough into the dark
Light can be found
Follow the hum of an exit sign
Until the buzzing is unbearable
Make it stop
Run
Make it stop
Run
Make it stop
The glow will always exist even out of sight
Perception is getting worse now
The view from my peripheral is closing
Honing in on getting out
Vision narrowing for escape
Lost in this life but will be found after death

I am darkness searching for light
But I absorb all that I find
Everything close I consume and destroy
Emotions exhausted and solely devoid
My head hurts
My heart hurts
My whole body hurts
Existence hurts
