Pittering and patering against the thin brittle roof
Louder and louder it becomes as it pours down
Steel raining down from the sky,
desperately endeavoring to break through
Harder and harder it pounds
I'm not fearful
The Rain will not break through
It cannot
It shall not

Staring towards the glowing globe in the sky
Watching it sink deeper and deeper into the aphotic blue water
The sky goes dim as the glowing orb sinks into the calm water
Laying my back against the bitter sand
I accept going back into the darkness once again

Step by step
Weaker and weaker we get
Day by day
Laugh by laugh
Cry by cry
March your way proudly through your short time we call life
Others simply walk, slowly, wading through the stretching tunnel
Dark turns
Left or right?
Forward or back?
Which way do I steer the March to my Death?

The cold crisp air brisks against my arm
Shivering, I go back again
Colder and colder
Shivering in to my own fictional world
Everyone is happy in this world
No pain, no suffering
Just happiness
The cold whisks me away into the wind
Up and down I go in my own world
Down and down I go
Diving head first, screaming
The cold has done it again
I'm back at the start once more...

Deeper and deeper I go
Down in straight lines, as if I am furrowing a garden
One, two, three, four
More and more
Dark liquid forms in groups upon my irritated tender skin
Why?
Why would I do this?
I don't know...

The rhythmic sounds fill my ears
Wrapping my mind in lyrics and musical notes
Emotions, feelings
Just listen
Just listen
Just listen to the poetic sounds
The music tries to lift me up off the ground I am chained to
It pulls harder and harder
Failing to pick me up to fly away
It leaves me to rot on the cold hard ground

A vivid red liquid quickly fills the valley
Beautiful, glistening in the shimmering light
Mesmerized, I make another valley upon my pale skin
"Just one more..." I say
I know, I believe this is a deep lie
The glorious sting excites me
Should I make another?
