Nihilist Dream

In the cage I pace
My thoughts are running wild
The air is damp with an acrid taste
My soul is set to fire
Locked away with no key
There’s no one around for miles
In some ways I want to be free
But with others I think I’ll stay awhile

 

The suns began to set
And the north wind brings memories
Reminds me how cold the world truly is
Its sickening majesties

 

The muses guide me a prophecy
Proving the universe born my science
And grants me the curse of clarity
And the wantonness of Man’s disobedience
So by the smoldering world’s light
My solitude death shall be by defiance
A final glace at embers (a lie)
The stars are hidden in a defining alliance

 

The night falls forever still
There is a silence in the air
Everything meets nothing and a hybrid is born
A beauty kept secret, left without a prayer

 

A nihilist dream
The saddening afterthought
I cry jaded with an ear-piercing scream
At humanity’s future prebought
The crimson river of life
Begins to dry in the epoch drought
Dusk falls to an existenceless night
We’re reaching the end of a trail long walked
