Umbra

How long
Along
Have I been hiding?
Severed and dying

Hold on
How long
Will shadows burrow deep
Unravel my dying

Under this light I see through
The shroud on my eyes that see you
Under this light I see me now
Obscurified
Under this light

I hold this breath within
And then I swallow
Beneath this breathless state
I fade away

In my numbness I survive
Break the walls inside me
It's the only way I'll feel your cries
Resonating with you

Remember
This mystery
Holds us bound
With the heart beat
