This Empty Flow

Useless

This Empty Flow


To shed a million tears 
there is a chalice 
where all sorrow is poured from 

now take a bath 
stain the walls of this empty room 
with tears of blood 
with tears of blood 

like a leaf in an autumn river I am 
carried by a useless vortex 
with no return to tree once strong 
with no destination 

this far enough not far enough not close enough as the last of the 
eternities opens not close enough I reach I come 
until all words end just to be with you until all worlds end. 

Hold me as it seems I fall 
take my hand as I think I am dying 
overflow as the depths whisper me welcome 
to sleep where all beauty turns grey 

stain the walls of this empty room 
with tears of blood 
with tears of blood
