An Autopsy

The Faceless

Exhume this wretched corpse
Its lifelessness to be withheld
His pale face tells the story of an unjust life
A sickening story of uncomfortable familiarity

The saddened shadow of a man that once was
Casts me into disgrace
The dissecting begins in the chest
Bone saws gnaw through lifeless flesh

A heartless cavity reveals a painless end
Preceded by a pain unknown
His bold voice forever silenced

Sever the skull
His mind lies in peace
Free from the torment of existence
