Impale
Here I am, a fading creatureLying here among the leaves
Shadows grow and lights shatter
Darkness takes me in its arms
A foolish being I once was
Always fearful of the heart
Till the day the blade was brought
And closed my lips forever
Yet there was no blood
My body unmarked
No blade was there
But the pain continued to last
Here I am, a fading creature
Lying here among the leaves
My eyes still open, my heart still beats
But my lips will never speak the secret in me
