Arms

The humming of the empty silence within reach
Like a world so freeing , constantly dreaming
So often, so many
This one different, you could never prove in speech
Or begin to understand
The feeling felt and known firsthand
The souls of ages passed , the current reserved man
Arms and hands to use in health
Uncover fortune
Dig up wealth
Yet the valuables in question , in mention
You'll find no specified direction
You could put a crater in this earth
So deep a pit you'd fall in first
Reaching and grasping with all your might
Suffocated by it's girth
You'd truly believe you wished you never started on this plight
It will be a candle here and there
That keeps you digging
Losing air
As it burns away the life within your lungs
