I am the fracture
Shattering from the inside out
Sightless, Summoned,
Brought to form by a hopeless prayer
Memory rejects me
Writhing through the dreams of thoughtless doomed travellers
On your souls I cast shade
Even the faithful can’t be spared
Fate has failed
I remain
Dissolve your heart
Offer it to me
Imprisoned in time
I am at once beneath the workings of ants and the borders of light
Imprisoned in time
I drown in seas of glass
Faceted teeth
Lavender stare
Pain
Sipping your thoughts
Preying on the words
You still tell yourself
Late in the night
Don’t you dare dream of
My glistening form
Fate has failed
I bow to my throne
My eyes are dripping wine
Bathe in moon tonight
Sever from body
Reform in shadow
Always fear my second godhood
My second reign
Clawing at the fabric of reality
Tearing my way out so desperately
Pulling myself tightly into strange threads
Drinking in the knowledge I have bled
I am the fracture
Reverberating behind your eyes
Silent, secret
Fate shall fail once more
I remain restored
