Hush - By This Are You Truly Known

So long you have dragged the heavy burden of your life. learned to mute the wild song in your veins, collapse its harmonies. to see nothing but the shape of the blade and escape in its gleam. no color but the shades of your pain as it turns to grief. now brought to an end by this cold and wretched hand. as scavengers wait to sift through your ashes and stare through their masks, layers deep, at all that is leaving you. like love's last regret, the moment of death is bitter and sweet. eternally beyond reach. bled into nothing. meant nothing. caught at the edge of your loneliness. all is leaving you. your heart broke and broke and broke, but never healed.
