A hollow head

In my mind a soft collision
I erase the line of vision
No definition no decision
Just a pulse beneath permission
Cold air drifts with indecision
You cant own it of you dont hold it
It forgets you exist
If you don't persist
You can't resist
You must insist
To always be this
Something forms in the static world
Every beginning quietly unfurles
I give myself but i dont resist
I ache but at least i feel this
Never touching the moment folds
Keeps nothing in its hold
The giving of my heart away
Makes me lonely every day
The shape of loss i cant betray
A shadow that refuses to stay
Theres no death above it
Theres a hush below
A hollow head
That doesnt know
It hurt it bled
Yet still it fed
On what i said
On what i lead
But i cant undo it
And if i knew it
I would never have stayed
here to play
There is nothing you can do to make me believe in you
There is nothing you can do to make me believe in you
No more division
No more indecision
I blur the lines
I make revisions
I dont define my one decision
To stay forgiving of definition
To stay believing in my vision
Cold air slips through my hands
A ghost ill never understand
If you dont hold it it wont care
It fades away
It isnt there
Stay above this fear
Dont let it come near
Dont let it hold you
Dont let it hear
When it whisperes your name
It becomes your mirror
And the closer it gets
The less clear you become
I give myself to someone else
But i never truly rest
The ache remains
The heart rebels
A wound that never left my chest
Walls that lead to nothing
Very close but never touching
Never trusting
Always learning
This sense of dread that hums above
This hollow head that mocks my love
Everything i’ve ever said
And the schemes i’ve lead
Dont stop it now
Its breaking through
This frozen crown
Becomes the truth
If i must fall
Then let me drown
Beyond forgiveness
Beyond division
A cold air stirs
The night is risen
