{the eternal bottlefication of feeling into oblivion}

infinite darkness drips at night

blooms the misty mountain air

closes my eyes and opens my soul

to see a spinning world full of despair

hearts that will never beat in sync

eyes that view but never truly see

minds that are stuck in the labyrinth

locks missing the fitting key

what are we to become

if the world is constantly changing

we play tug-of-war with our hearts

against a mind that keeps rearranging

i look around the streets

people rushing by and by

i will never be a mover or shaker

what if i just die?

this world is parched of feelings

empathy and sympathy floating up in space

my soul absorbs these too great

i can no longer keep up the pace
