It's not bright at all: Villanelle

words are not useful anymore

i release them, they never come back

i wallow in this pit, rotting at the core

honest excuses i planned to implore,

whisper in the void, becoming artifacts

words are not useful anymore

we'll never return to that noble shore,

where promises and futures interact

i wallow in this pit, rotting at the core

your untimely demise erased the score

apologies go silent, no more contact

words are not useful anymore

finality is certain, no chance for encore

reality stings like eyes meeting cognac

i wallow in this pit, rotting at the core

strength withers to nothing—recovery is a chore

destinies departed, renouncing every contract

words are not useful anymore

i wallow in this pit, rotting at the core
