how could i forget


oh, how i yearn
for days free of sorrow

oh, how i burn
with desire for tomorrow

but it's all gone now
covered in dust

as hope's a weapon
covered in rust

once it touches you
the sickness spreads

and you hope to
forget the caress

of the black hole
that swallows it all

the never-ending nightmare
nested gently between your ribs
there to stay forevermore
no matter what gives
