Self Eradication
Confined to this asylum bound by massive chains
restricting me to my own mis- guided perception, oh how I long to break free.
In the distance there lies a sea of disconsolate faces washing ashore so I keep watch to see if I can find me.
There is this hollowness inside me, it's presence so utterly dominating, like a raging river it runs wild.
The idea of feeling completely numb is ever so enchanting, an escape from all the dishevelment that thru the years I have compiled.
The air around me has becime so stifiling, it is slowly crushing my lungs, under its magnitude I will be forced to give in before too long.
Willing my breath to please slow so I can calm myself before the storm, I focus on my hearts rythmic sound, such melancholy song..
