As Titans

A tapestry of history
The wounds we feel
Malevolent and alive
Unseen but so real

Echoed moments every one
Grief and despair
Fury and rage as life's breath
We cannot win

Scarred from battle
Pain from love
Scars from loss
The soul in the mirror reflects all
Far from life
Far from death
Scars unseen
The cold light hides nothing

Hollow and unrelenting
There is no fight
An emptiness that locks us
In an iron cage

Growing mocking haunts inside me
A curse cast on my whole and psyche
What time is mine? How am I free?
Life once mine now given away

Pierce the skin towards the evil held within
This parasite wants my whole
Cast out, out now, I will not be your host
Now set me free
Hollow vows they echo out
