to close my eyes reduce you to black nothing more than a insignificant shadow among the vultures I will walk away and take with me everything you will never understand for this belongs to me and my time for sharing is through your words have cut deep for the last time and mine will fall on deaf ears no longer with a line drawn in the sand these differences they divide on the one side, all the hope in the world the other, putrid flesh and yellowed bones I tire of forgiveness and I am sickened by regrets so this is your fate my silhouette will shrink and fade against the horizon as the birds begin to devour your already rotten carcass I will smile and laugh and dance and sing for the first time in years joyful as I hear your muted cries in the distance
