The foreboding push to the west— Should I proceed, or fail the test? Am I ready for freedom’s flame? Why do I still call out his name? Please enter now, and be my guest. The soil is stiff and laced with frost, Each choice another quiet cost. Sadness clings to my outer shell— Why must these demons choose to dwell? Call me when you’re feeling lost. Snow-capped peaks, a perfect scene, Too bad I numb with methamphetamine. The forest burns—wild, uncontrolled, Desire’s grip won’t let me hold. Want to see a magic trick? The flowers bloom, so bright, so bold, Why is my family always cold? My tears dissolve into the stream, Still, I dare to chase the dream— One day, I will be in control, what I have been told
