Encrusted
Inside my hardened heart lives a barnacle
you tend to find them lurking in the shallows,
it's feeding off the nothing, becoming one with it.
it may have a voice,
or I might have a conscience
for something screams in the night.

Oblivion! The nothing that needs something! Great work, begs for more stanzas! Thank you, Mike.
