Soulless

A stricken silence
An emptiness never to be filled
Unstoppable waves ripping through all the defiled
Thundering in the eyes of a child

Buried in the nameless black
The creature that he truly is
So in doubt with every vital breath
Birth, disease, emptiness and death

Nothing to this world or any
Gleams of fire darting in his eyes
Watching the world grow darker every day
The light of faith slowly wither away

The comfort of hope is fading
The confusion of life has raided
Shadows on the walls in an endless maze
A soul left torn and dazed

Nothing to this world or any
Gleams of fire darting in his eyes
Watching the world grow darker every day
The light of faith slowly wither away

A body drained of essence
The last stages of sentience
A pleasurable state of final rest
A pile of skin and soul to arise
Death eagerly claims his prize
