Inherit

Leaning into the rails Clutching cold metal in pouring rain Wind swept, it crashes over me The absence that we feel when the ones we love are taken away Deep in avoidance Are you dealing with the pain or burying what’s inside There’s comfort in silence as it eats me alive Lying dormant on the bathroom floor How long’s it been since I’ve seen your face I dread how you must feel There’s comfort in silence as it eats me alive Pull away from this panicked state It’s eating me alive There’s comfort in silence I’ll find ways to live with myself as my head hangs over the sink There’s no cure, no treatment Grief haunts until it sleeps This life, this weakness It ends with me No cure, no treatment Grief haunts until it sleeps This life, this weakness It ends with me Sleep
