In Hiding.
This cloak is long, draped across the tarmac,
To hide even the shadow that I leave behind,
I want no trace of me when I'm gone,
I want to close the curtains, to draw that blind,
The darkness comes, but it doesn't conceal light,
Light was never there in the first place,
Just chasing something that never existed,
Remembering someone that had no face,
Just a name, just a pitiful name,
Not even etched in ink or liquid of any kind,
Just on a screen which now rolls to black,
The only memory left in your mind,
You can't see me walking, I was never there,
Even across the sands, my footprints don't appear,
You think you've lost me, I was never around,
Just an empty puppet filled with fear,
The strings were pulled one too many times,
A worthless life for a meaningless vessel,
Now close your eyes and forget existence,
In hiding now, in silence to nestle,
Solitude seems perfect for an empty body,
No soul or voice to fill the void,
Just a few simple words upon a fading screen,
"Deleted, erased, forgotten, destroyed."
