Strive to See

This deadlocked
 our failure
 draped in vows
 a dead letter
 an altar stripped
 to the ground

 To all things
 we could not overcome
 and all we lost
 for all the faith that
 we will cast aside
 and all we lost along the way

 Dead silence
 that echoes
 in our stare
 dead endings
 abandoned lives
 in disrepair

 To all things
 we could not overcome
 and all we lost
 for all the faith that
 we will cast aside
 and all we lost along the way

 Dissolving
 in slow motion
 this deathbed
 of devotion
