[ When The Light Goes Out ] - Introspection
No Plagiarism!cPxodHhvOohGTl9Ujwovposted on PＥNAＮＡ

[ When The Light Goes Out ]655Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIfGWFhkcZ

When the light goes out655Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sqNSFHthx

The pupil gets bigger655Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuSueohovx

Window to the soul655Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7TsNAM9E4

Celestial vigor

Blinking in the void

Eyes in the abyss

Left in the darkness

When vision is eclipsed

655Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XRnHkA0sk

Past-life fading

When the light goes out

World disappears

Existence in a doubt

Eyes once searching

Losing all account

Till the mind paints a picture

For it cannot do without

655Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQEIKVAzIc

Trying to remember

Cannot quite recall

When the light goes out

You lose all your resolve

World disfigured

In a moment of withdrawal

Memory’s creation

Leaving you appalled

655Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCowMAvvTB

Who am I really

What am I about

Am I still beautiful

When the light goes out

Is there a place for me

A place that I’m allowed

When the world disappears

And no one is around

655Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhZcvAs24N

Now I’m cast in fear

But not of the darkness

Identity retracing

No visible, to harness

When the light goes out

Why do I feel heartless

Abandoned to the soul

Am I nothing but a carcass

655Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaJbesyoj9

Mind over matter

Yet both of them in doubt

Am I a god of nothing

Foolishly devout

Worshiping with fervor655Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGQwHayUfZ

When the light goes out

Crafting a salvation

As I cannot live without

655Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqwKbaDU7A

Buried in a tomb

Underneath the earth

Trapped within a womb

Dying to be birthed

Fuck, I’m going crazy

None of this occurred

When the light goes out

How then can I observe

655Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvJYk6W1X9

Identity in question

Meaning, in a drought

No one here to save me

Enlightened, no amount

Meditate oblivion

The hell I would allow

I just, really miss love

When the light goes out
