am i a failure ? indecisiveness is the blood that runs in my veins not good enough is a label on my brain in between clouds on a plane , yet i feel crushed beneath the surface of the earth and i try not to feel too much or think too much but like an invisible ghost my own brain haunts me i try to close my eyes and drift away like the aircraft I'm in but my thoughts pull me harshly down like gravity I'm now a crashing airplane sending down flames and pain , I'm crying my tears are the ocean i crash into and my soul is the island nearby watching myself crash and not being able to do anything about it silent and lost in its own forest , my soul watched me from afar my screams , my sirens begging for it to help I'm falling into the water in slow motion yet everything seems to happen so fast thinking if i would ever float to the surface I'm still drowning , in my own tears and blood slowly i lose my ability to breathe but my beating heart is not stopping i hit the ocean floor , a loud thud that created a crater now sand is surrounding me i open my eyes but i can't see , the giant ocean and world in front of me on the ocean floor helplessly laying no hope no dreams no goals just a blank space of feelings thoughts scream into my head and i mute them dead i wake up on a shore ready to fly again where will life take me after all this hurt and misery will i drown in the salty water of my eyes or explode on a town full of people will i fall and be the fault of the peoples' pain or will i safely reach land my engines ignite , i regain back my sight its time to see the world with my own eyes its the time to live not trying to survive

thoughts on a plane
am i a failure ? indecisiveness is the blood that runs in my veins not good enough is a label on my brain in between clouds on a plane , yet i feel crushed beneath the surface of the earth and i try not to feel too much or think too much but like an invisible ghost my own brain haunts me i try to close my eyes and drift away like the aircraft I'm in but my thoughts pull me harshly down like gravity I'm now a crashing airplane sending down flames and pain , I'm crying my tears are the ocean i crash into and my soul is the island nearby watching myself crash and not being able to do anything about it silent and lost in its own forest , my soul watched me from afar my screams , my sirens begging for it to help I'm falling into the water in slow motion yet everything seems to happen so fast thinking if i would ever float to the surface I'm still drowning , in my own tears and blood slowly i lose my ability to breathe but my beating heart is not stopping i hit the ocean floor , a loud thud that created a crater now sand is surrounding me i open my eyes but i can't see , the giant ocean and world in front of me on the ocean floor helplessly laying no hope no dreams no goals just a blank space of feelings thoughts scream into my head and i mute them dead i wake up on a shore ready to fly again where will life take me after all this hurt and misery will i drown in the salty water of my eyes or explode on a town full of people will i fall and be the fault of the peoples' pain or will i safely reach land my engines ignite , i regain back my sight its time to see the world with my own eyes its the time to live not trying to survive
