Magpie Tales: Draining Out of Life

Blood

Creeps in veins

And retrieves

Those hearts as they beat

They drain out of life

Hollow silhouettes

Crossing the light of the sun

As they pass

A thousand thoughts

A thousand feelings

A thousand words

Reduced into one

Muffled screams

Silenced by fear

So turn a deaf ear

And don't say a thing

Feel the innards of your soul

Crumbling down

And you try to hide

You are dead inside

Going through life

But not living it

A ghost you've become

And in those shades

I perpetually wait

For the voids

To be reassumed 

For the dead

To be exhumed
