Held on to hope, sadly it was a mistake.
Left falling, spiraling out of control.
Pain grips the heart, sorrow fills the mind.
Failure would be what I describe.
There's a burning inside my soul.
Bringing me to my knees.
I can feel a weight being lifted.
Instinct drives me to reach out.
My hand grabs another.
I see myself looking back.
A younger me, a happier me.
At an age where happiness seemed endless.
When I had no care in the world.
His hand slips through my fingers.
He floats away and disappears.
I fall backwards into darkness.
No light, and yet I still see.
Deja vu sets in.
It's a familiar place, yet different.
I feel nothing.
Emotionless.
Memories escape me.
Thoughtless.
No words leave my lips.
Voiceless.
I am consumed by the world.
A world that we live in and share.
Consumed by the shadow that is doubt.
Broken in the darkness, I lay.
For I am nothing but an empty shell...
