Why?

Dissatisfaction an empty abyss

Deep in now a well known limb

Hope severed, intangible, a ghost

Screaming without a sound

Bleeding without a wound

And these strings fatuously tuned.

Inebriate and stumbling through

an ocean of nobodies, all together, unseen

Without a purpose, an insect

Abiding another nobodies law,

Rebellion restricted by a Metropolitan claw

Steel bars in my own conscience

Dreaming the escape, yet alone

Soaring through time

Captivation doesn't last

A welcome blessing and an unintentional curse, yet alone

and innocence is now grown
