Blinding luminescence
Shreds the surface
Numb to the ache
I lose a part of me
With each f*cking step
Puddles form as I hobble by
Leaving my mark on the path I chose
Blood seeps into cracked earth
Anemia won't bother the flora
The weight I carry
Falling
Breaking
Crumbling
Crawling
Making itself known
Drown in holy light
Its rays cut deep
Through pounds of flesh
The veil never lifts
No inclination beyond the gleam
A means to an end never looked so attractive
It's all a blur
I'll crawl if I have to
A means to an end
I may never heal
Never recover
Too stubborn to die but too bright to pass up
I can see it off in the distance
The light at the end is too bright to pass up
I may never heal
