Crumbling in the darkness
Lost with no way out
Voice, long departed
No longer able to shout.

Within this forsaken graveyard
She is left to wither
So who is there to turn to?
They are dead to her.

Crawling from their graves
They cry as they’re beaten back.
She doesn’t need their help.
So she continues the attack.

Despite their desperate claws
She wants to be alone
Immune to her surroundings.
She doesn’t have a home.

She weeps in silent tremors.
Masked by strength within illusions
She wants to be brave
But she’s lost in this delusion.

Vision, misconstrued
She craves this passing time
Hoping it will bring to light,
All she left behind.

Yet these corpses continue to haunt her
Daring to come close
They have more substance than
Her irretrievable ghosts.
