Palladium

 Here comes the great numb

Wash over me
Take every broken piece
Until theres nothing left
But a speck of what could have been
A glimmering shard that shines in the absence of light
The piece of me that made you believe in brighter days
You came too close
You became hypnotized
With the unspoken promise of bliss
Unknowing to the darkness all around you
You've fell into a hole
You've been caught by the daunting, looming, ever observant onlooker
A presence unknown by even the host
Dragged by the tail end of the beast
Playing the role of the puppet
Pitter pattering in this wicked show
Judgment clouded and unbeknownst to it all
Yet privy to the aftermath of the onslaught
The boy questioning his own reality
Takes a sip
And awaits the great numb
To wash over him once again
