we enter
Death's blossoming tomb
where the context of words
spin slowly among solitude
darkness swallows our eyes
and whispers to the rhythm
of a heart beat
a whisper of immortality
lifeless reflections
forced between
the wrath of ancient screams
that bind our hands in deceit
a punishment
for letting the truth become
complete
balancing the future under a razorblade
the world shall perish
within our breath
to the sound of vile static
an eclipse strong enough
to block out the light
of the soul

The emotion within this poem is strong. The contrast of this piece sets the mood for the whole poem. This is very well written. I enjoyed each word :clap:
