It is an ominous path
the one of self-destruction,
an angry voice inside,
sad old whispers

We are supposed to carve our face
out of the stone of existence,
but we learn to chew silently
the marrow of our own bones
in desperation

Our love is there just for others
as is our friendship
and our compassion
while our hollow heart,
full of longing,
beats with remorse,
ashamed and doubtful

How can we hold our own hands?
How can we offer ourselves shelter?
How can we be our own home?
How can we live in our presence?

It is an ominous path
the one of self-destruction,
an angry voice inside,
sad old whispers
