Mosaics - Lotos

He saw the burning of the home he loved
He watched as the sky came undone
So afraid of dying alone
But now his heart turns to stone

It sucked the air from her lungs as the streets turned stale
Staring vis a vis with the pale

He begs and begs on the curb
Just to get home from work
He'd give anything that has worth
For one second not to hurt

She can't feel her hands against her skin
Never able once to win
Every day crippled by
The help she needed to get by

He saw the world in his future before it was snatched away
Working hard for a monster that will never let him escape
All of these empty caskets for this inescapable debt
They become disposable cures while they forget who they were

The rocks welcome the broken ship
The captain absent from his post
Bodies broken, bloody lips
Cried out on a hostile coast
And from the shadows voices boast
About the artifact of fear
The opioids make living ghosts
That buried all my sick friends here

The world you made is an empty sphere
