Feeding Darkness

On the night beginning the journey

Didn't think we would be burning

On the other side - you cannot - speak of me

​

I just don't have it in me

Hope came and left and now I see

​

Still feeding darkness

With my thoughts of emptiness

It's like a flood of words 

That excavate my harness

 If I owned my destiny 

I could make it stop too

There's an angry phrase right there

That cannot seem - to shut up

​

Although - you hope to be there

On our minds eternally and

An idea so elusive

Like a word about to be spoken

​

I just don't have it in me

Hope came and left and now I see

​

Still feeding darkness

With my thoughts of emptiness

It's like a flood of words 

That excavate my harness

 If I owned my destiny 

I could make it stop too

There's an angry phrase right there

That cannot seem - to shut up
