ztchace
i'm in attendance, standing idly by as pitch black flashes race in front my eyes.
i don't understand this image i see. there lies a coffin and in it, lies me.
i look at my hands and then at the sky, as a cold and dull raindrop, finds a home in my eye.
i blink it away and look to my right. there isn't a soul standing within my sight.
i look to my left and i smirk as i see, not a single person is standing there beside me.
i look back at the box as it waits in the rain. and full understanding quickly morphs into pain.
i refuse this emotion as it tries to take me. and awake from a dream of a fate soon to be.
the seas ablaze.
a firey night.
i set my sights on the dimming light.
the moon replaced a crooked sun.
the night declares a victory won.
the daylights gone but the flames alive.
the stars ignite this placid sky.
they dive and sink beneath the sea
and then bounce back up for all to see.
i'm catching glances everywhere.
no signs of envy, just empty stares.
and once their eyes remove from mine,
i see the sun no longer shines.
a dark black cloud now takes it's place.
there's no more room for these mistakes.
so i resort to living in disguise.
and soon those eyes no longer pry.
my life's a secret. the walls been built.
a border keeps out all the guilt.
the glares still try to get inside,
but i no longer see their eyes.
my own are coated with a veil,
that blinds me from this wicked tale.
so with no story left to tell,
i stay restrained in my crafted hell.
i was drifting through the center of
this shifting, twisting universe.
and once my feet came to the floor,
i saw that i exist no more.
the universe just took its toll.
not a single thing is left to hold.
My world is starting to unfold.
The lies you’ve told are getting old.
With this sudden lack of gravity,
You have floated off, so far from me.
Now your face is what I cannot see.
So I lay here in my self defeat.
