Unsubstantial Shadow

Buried beneath the ashes,

Screams of dead laughter.

Your shadow still walks in my dreams,

But your voice breaks me into pieces.

I searched for you in the dust of what’s lost,

In the ruins of what we once were.

Each step pulls me deeper down,

An abyss where love has died.

Your hollow eyes

Stare at me through the gloom.

The fire consumed us, but brought no warmth—

Only ashes now mixing with my blood.

Why won’t you come?

Why won’t you drag this corpse away?

I was made to follow you into hell,

But here I burn alone, forever.

I searched for you in the dust of what’s lost,

In the ruins of what we once were.

Each step pulls me deeper down,

An abyss where love has died.

Uh...

Beneath the ashes,

Where your bones and mine

Will finally… embrace.
