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
