In days fueled by motion
most roll, go along, conform
effortless pace falls short
but if not for the weak,
then the timid, the unwanted
Unbalanced, and immune to empathy
leaving only the scorned
the ones that hear and feel more
imagine that they contribute to a world
that isn't sharing.

One day will change the way
I see my world, my fate and my hurt
Come to new terms
And eyes that try, as hard as mine
Suddenly find Me,
No more hiding, denying
Trying to protect,
the little I thought I had left
When inside is all that was needed
the right light
I find it though
in those eyes
welcoming,
hearts sacred sunshine.
Emotionally climbing, out
of these walls
The ones of my own design.

Forbidden pulls at me
Demanding fealty,
I hurt, I am in pain.
Full of wishful thoughts,
the empty chest feeling.
I feel at risk,
Holding on to not letting go.
Always, the end is always the same...
Look at what's changed,..
The castle falls apart.
Everyone fades away
What if I gave up?...
As those gave up on me.
Dusting myself off as I get up,...
Wandering off to unknowns,
far from this place.
Deep and away,.. below.
Safely out of place when I fell upon myself...
I found my eyes had sunk in,...
an aura starts to blaze,...
a grey shade of those that mourn.
My rotten wants displayed,
running out from a hole...
What if I gave up?
As they gave up on me?...
I hurt, I hate, I go so far away.
Empty, I waste,...
I will fade as everyone fades
and the castle crumbles.
What if I gave up?...
Even though I am aware,...
of the rules to follow.
For you I will break,...
Everyone, one day fades.
What if I go before you do?
