a truth called nothing marked on my sky

Fatefully marked on my sky
A brooding shadow wrapped in sunshine
There is no way of grasping
how shallow and contemptible life is
Until you follow it down the path
A little closer to the heart of the beast
The rising regrets
The yearning to forget
The helpless disgust
The surrender, the hate
Your existence, bright as the stars
I try to forget this once was a dark place
A voyage into the pleasures of the void
Your home was always with you
The mistress of your being
As inscrutable as destiny
The rising regrets
The yearning to forget
The helpless disgust
The surrender, the hate
Unfold the secrets of empires
Only to find them not worth knowing
A pose of desolation and sympathy
With all attributes of pain, leaving and despair
Like a flash of lightning in the clouds
Let the wounds of heaven unveil
The rising regrets
The yearning to forget
The helpless disgust
The surrender, the hate
