I’ve stared into the windows to your soul

Looked into an empty void, a hollow shell

A shroud of misery draped across your heart

Like a harbinger of death prophesizing a toll

Through glazed crystals flicker lights from hell

A shudder of fear arises with a thought to depart

I should flee, taking with me all that I now know

Screams of agony burst through the ashen shroud

While a mournful lament accompanies the sorrow

No one made you this way, it’s what you’ve allowed

The mortality of your circumstances has begun to show   

I had known you once back when you were whole

Back before your life became more than you could bare

Before you lost everything you were, lost your very soul

Just to trip the light fantastic in the desolation of life’s despair
