Feeling broken, damaged, and deteriorating, this depicts the feeling of hopelessness one can feel when unable to realize that the power to change things comes from within.

Arrival is swift
For eyes
Fatigue slows response
For the rest
And the eyes burn anywhere
Releasing them like a tumor
That too long was allowed to grow
Sights I once had chosen
~Escaping~
body agonizing
self-inflicted death
karma came to kick my ass
but there was nothing left

    I feel like I must go and rinse the bastard from my psyche….
