A Rotten Log
I have a chasm inside of me
Dark and splintering
It feels like rotten wood
And smells like lies
I add more into it
To fill it
But it seems to get deeper
More weighted
It's hunger and thirst
Fire and dirt
Withering me away
Until I myself fall
Into the hole
Never to be seen again
Dark and splintering
It feels like rotten wood
And smells like lies
I add more into it
To fill it
But it seems to get deeper
More weighted
It's hunger and thirst
Fire and dirt
Withering me away
Until I myself fall
Into the hole
Never to be seen again
