with broken fingers
i struggle to pull myself
up the rope of this
noose strangling me
grinning
burning from stingers
from a hive of good health
puncturing me with bliss
struggling to be free
begining
to drift
into..
paralyzed
parallel lives
put on hold
waiting
for me to finally realize
death is a false
heartbeat
in the end we shall prosper
with rushing wings
flapping with all their might
submerged in pools
of deafening silence
drowning
lifelessness springs
from this abyss into the night
disobeying the rules
a scapegoat in violence
crowning
as i drift
into...
reflected reflections
of my minds eye
obtrusively
shimmering
in obliterated
orange oceans
overcome with
the urge to
tread destiny
reaching for
help
holding nothing
but...
my breath
as i drift....
into...
paralyzed
parallel lives
put on hold
waiting
for me to finally realize
death is a false
heartbeat
in the end we shall prosper
i promise
