Hesitate and drown:
The void calls incessantly
Words I don't intend to hear
Crawling; opal spiders in my ears
Weave their pearl webs on my mind
Come
Come my sweet Keres
Will you sweep my mind of this evil
Heartache beyond that of understanding
Blind to celestial bonds snapped
Your visage scared into the diamond mind
I can never forget
Won't someone tell me why I survived
Your flames lick the dry tinder at my stake
Impaling everything that I am
Maybe if I let go it won't hurt
Flowing through me like moonlight through a ghost dance
Synapses cut the cord to my mind
I never fell so hard
This could be the act
Where I hesitate and drown
