Empty

A blue haze surrounds me

As I lay in a pool of my own blood and tears

Foolishly I hope this is a dream

And my dreams are reality

'Cause my dreams taste much sweeter

In my dreams instead of blood

I taste honeysuckle and peaches

And sunlight beams on green grass

In my dreams you’re wrapped around me

Like vines on a tree

I breathe you in, you breathe me out

In my dreams I feel “amazing grace

how sweet the sound

that saved a wretch like me”

But this isn’t another dream

I am wretched and loney

While wolves taste my flesh

I fall off of my own bones

Like a tender meat

Still fresh

I look away only to see you

As you were in my dreams

White doves carrying you away

I cry out for you

And your brown eyes see me

But your heart is deaf to the sounds

And I lay before you, dying a painful death

Crying for you to hold me once more

And you let me die with empty arms
