Document

In stillness
A silent weight
Pausing as the minutes each evaporateA desire
To leave a scar
To raise a voice from within the darkDecaying
Cascading
Existence falls apart
Around me
Within me
So I must leave my markCH
This is a document
To prove that I was here
This is a document
To prove I was at all
And when my voice ceases to be
Will the echo still ring loudly?
And when there's nothing left of me
Will my memory still go on?A flicker
Transitory state
An echo of an instance that burns a wayA moment
A shard of time
A solitary thread that threatens to unwindDecaying
Cascading
Existence falls apart
Around me
Within me
So I must leave my mark(CH)Distant
An approaching age
When this document falls beneath another's gazeToo late
We have lost the dawn
The signal's loud and clear, but the transmitter's goneDecaying
Cascading
Existence falls apart
Around me
Within me
So I must leave my mark
