The choice for me sits awaiting.
My indecisive mind, still debating.
The choice is mine to partake,
Forgetting the things that are at stake.
Life as far as the eye can see,
I stand at the door of immortality.
The alluring position beckons me in.
I take a blind step and forget where I've been.
Forgetting my home, forgetting my lover,
Forgetting the life I'll trade for another.
My mind is stripped of all things I used to know
But still engraved is a word called Home.
I look around this gruelish hell
And forget the reasons that I fell.
I get a feeling that I was wrong,
So I turn back to the road traveled on.
I see the door is closed, sealed so tight.
The fear that has struck me, I cannot fight.
I hurt for my family, I hurt for my friends,
I hurt for the knowledge that this is
The End.
