Exponential

You know
I fell in love
Seven million headstones
Couldn’t hold me back
I’m in trouble now
All this effort
My spine has snapped
Can you smell it
It’s the taste of fear
Flowing fast
There’s no running out
Twenty million tombs surround me now
I went inside to search her out
All I smelt was fear
I’m her forest
She’s unwilling
Time to disappear
So still I’m lost
Mired
Depraved
I cannot save me
For another day
Won’t settle for a rainy day
I see her looking to my eyes
I know what she sees
500 million tattered dolls
They all look like me
