Once I lost
I became
The epitome of it all

Birth

Life

Death

Rot

And if I decide
You deserve it
I’ll retrace my steps
Admitting it

I'm eating through the pain
No sense but to live out my days
I'm dying, by the way
I’ll succumb to it

Most recently
I see myself through the lens of my father
I’d rather choke than breathe
I’d rather sleep than see

Sinking deeper
Can’t remember who I am
Disregard my former self
Accept I'm someone else

These pulsing veins
Flowing blood through my body
They hold your DNA
And it’s part of me

I'm dead

Most recently
I see myself through the lens of my father
I’d rather choke than breathe
I’d rather sleep than see
