I will tell you this because, I know I can't stay;
I was too early, the both of you cannot sway.
The motions of your young adult life;
Your plans for a family, as husband and wife.

I just have one wish, mommy, daddy;
Please, do not forget about me.
Don't forget that I was here, no matter how brief;
Live my life, full of love, not grief.
Truth be told I cannot tell
why people, each and one another fail
to see the twinge, the strain of his neighbor,
by cause of conflicting beliefs and chosen leader
Broken lyrics, I can not speak the words,
crushed poets, hope and love, long lost.
Explosion of the soul, effectively neutered,
why do you  restrict my so?

Salvation, from the start was naught,
caught in a trap, enticed by which I sought.
Lust, Greed and Pride reigned,
in your heart, nothing else is contained.
Break the mold,
leave conformity behind
Bring total obliteration
to the fear of individuality.

Follow what makes your blood boil
Go ahead and set fire to your very soul
For in the ashes of your humdrum remains
Lies a new god, bent under your will
I burned my tongue once
praising the saints of Men,
For they have provided but a scarlet letter
to the strongest of sexes.
I endured the darkness
hoping to see stars,
But all I saw is the Abyss
and it is staring back.
Deep sleep, my body's rigid, unwavering,
peering unto the abyss, staring back
Undeterred, resolution unmatched,
I will escape the prison of my mind
