Bloodless

There’s nothing left
No tears to weep
It’s too far gone
The wounds too deep
I feel it now
Turning inside out
Crimson, green and grey
Too weak to shout
I’ve been here before
Of that there’s no doubt
Unfortunately though
This time there’s no way out
My thoughts have all left me now
I see no evil and fear not a thing
I hear and say what I want
Hear the bell ring
As the round comes to an end
There’s nothing left
No blood to bleed
Like a Mandrake root
The Devil’s seed
No imagination
My dreams are all real
I open my eyes
I walk, I creep
No escaping the pain that I feel
The cost never changes
There’s no wheel to deal
No secrets to steal
Purge the evil within
Erase all traces of where I’ve been
Silence the beast
Let it speak no more
Dead silence in between
Pain is the sensation of life
Sent to remind us to live
Compassion is what
Makes us feel
Makes us give
Understanding is what
Equalizes us all
Puts us on the same page
Love is the glue
That keeps us all together
No matter our colour,
Sex or age.
