In lack of anything substantial

My soul is decomposing
ridding the body of its
purpose.
Soulless I walk
through the valley of darkness
afraid no more
I have no more

(reason)

All I had was a pointed dagger to your
bleeding heart
and no consciense to stop me.

Never knew I regret deeper,
more tormenting,
than that I feel standing over your shell.
Emptied for me,
as the sky falls down upon us.
