What if life is nonexistent?
The darkness is concealing
Everything seems so distant
Having loss of all feeling
Feeling as if it’s all a dream
Or so it would seem
For living is a virtue
Full of unknown pain
If I can’t even feel you
Then how can life be vain?
I feel so far away
Fading in to a disarray
I’ve become broken and alone
Nothing I touch feels real
More distant and unknown
By secrets I can’t conceal
Not ready to make that first cut
When the curtains are pulled shut
Sitting in a theatre
I watch lives pass me by
Staring in this mirror
Life’s reflection seems to die
I did some experimenting in this one..
and I kind of like how it came out...
But.. I'm hoping it's not over rhymed..
