Dredge This Wound

Haste

I've been down, helpless, still.

I come here once again, feelings lost,

Extinction of what used to be,

Dwelling keeps me from standing on my own.

Selfless dissection of emotion,

Emotion I have left inside dredge this wound,

Salt of tears, then I fade away,

Slips away and fades raising eyes to see you,

Anger is all I feel, missed your forgiveness,

Just a witness of my own demise, searching these pieces,

They cut me, you laugh as I bleed, swallow contradiction,

Just a victim of all I have inside this pain just deepens,

I can never let go, feel it numbing me, exist around you,

Everything I know, ive held myself down to,

Held myself down so that I will never fall,

All of this I feel I pour out for you, salvation,

In the release of all that I feel
