Effigy

Left in a dark room
I find myself sitting on the floor
Red fluids drip from my body
The mark of loneliness has been drawn on my skin

Abandonment is dehumanizing
And here I am with my suicidal mind
Watching the shadows approach
This could be my last breath on this earth

And once again
The cycle repeats itself
And I erected an effigy
With the remains of my flesh

Life is ravaging me

My mind is my worst weapon
Against myself
I'm exhausted
Of all strength
My light is dissipated

My blood runs cold
Breathing causes me pain
Hellish inner landscapes

And once again
I've been overcome by discouragement
All the pleasures are gone
Only corrosive tears remain
