murk & marrow

joy escapes through the tangled days, youth escapes through the blur of pain, smoke cloaks the sky, the bell explodes, a shudder runs through, we have nowhere to turn, when the luster is gone and life loses right, we cannot escape the slipping of time, exodus of eden led by convenience, the murk and marrow are all that we know, when the luster is gone and life loses right, nothing will escape the slipping of time, love needs to feed, ghosts need belief
