The Ungiving

My hands are cold and my heart's resisting
To reach out and touch, what has always been distant
So don't let me know, all that I'll be missing
As you continue like I had never existed

Yet I wish that you could see through my eyes
To know how it feels, everyday to die
And I wish you could touch the light within
Wrapped up in darkness, just waiting to live
But why replenish myself with aspiration or reverie
When all they render are more reasons to bury me

And from the ever giving life that flows
I stand close by, but who would ever know
Or care to see that I am there
Dying inside and trapped by fear
Longing to be alive and loved
While ceasing before the eyes of none
I wish that I could soar so high
To forget how I felt before I died

Draw me into the jaws of the dragon
Where the tail turns in and the soul unravels
In rivers of fire, before the wind, I'm cast
Out of existence, to never comeback
