Somewhere In the Debris

The foil to your heart is where my whole worth is
Name or noun serving no purpose
Mine is bottled deep beneath the ocean
Because shadows feed before showing emotion
And no I'm not venting about feelings
Not vain enough to be so, revealing
Something more is guiding me
 
Lately I have felt oral like a virus
A fiend unleashed filling silence
Time is a thief unmasking all our fears
Undoing the grease that is unmaking our gears
Parting the mold leaving us frail, wretched
Losing control of parts of my essence
Careful where you aim, I bleed
 
The foil to your heart is my being burning
Betwixt valleys green unnerving
Despite all these dangers that I display
Deranged from the false, devolving into decay
In goes your rapture and out goes my pain
With all of the peace we fail to sustain
I am the one who still can't breathe.
