Afraid

Every single thing
You try to hold will
Fade like a dying ember
Grasping like a foal
Thrown in the water
You will refuse surrender
Dismantling
Muscle memory, piece by piece
Taken by a light
With pitiless eyes
You were afraid of leaving
Bones are razed in time
I hope you’ll find a
Lull that feels like breathing
Dismantling
Muscle memory, piece by piece
