Skeletons

The dreams of better places
Decimate my view
The weight of your embraces
Remind the world of you

Outside the world's opposing
Attempting to decree
With allies decomposing
The future that could be

I have let the dream escape
A sunken mass of things erased
A list of names to leave behind
A wound to heal that I'll create
The message failed to translate
The answers failing to convey
The fiery truth and reason why
The world I live in ends this way
