I'm waiting for the frailty of the mind to manifest in my body In the blink of an eye I've witnessed civilisations and morals die I despise this wretched body so set on eternal perseverance I have seen the life leave far too many eyes Gasping and grasping at my arm, begging for a saviour Time has forgotten me here, but I have forgotten nothing I am the Vessel Souls fleeing to location unknown Shells withered and vacant Hollowed vessels, envy of the empty Is this just all my imagination? Is this just the workings of a mind gone mad? I'm losing will, losing hope, losing faith and sanity I am losing the belief that this will eventually work out Can someone, something, give me an answer To why I have to shoulder this burden alone Why can't someone ease this weight I bear? An eternity of memories and whisperings It claws and eats away at the framework of my mind Unraveling reason and begging for excision
