Blackout

Thousands of visions by destiny align leaving me to wonder what it all defines nightmares they creep in zig zagging lines circling me with vague hints and signs I'm betting my life away by shooting dice because nothing no nothing will ever suffice enclosed in vines of thorns my heart turns to ice as the side effects drown me in oceans of fright Here I still stand in the same place I've been breathing songs of pain, despair and loneliness hesitant to move you can call it a sin all the while I'm suffocating from society's fatal kiss From lips carved of stone indestructible to hammers one stroke of the finger leaves cracks along the surface as strangers pass by some will stop and take gander only to judge making you question your purpose On the outside I may be indestructible but on the inside I am fragile if my internal organs shatter the pain could last for quite a while I would seek a donor but I don't think that anyone would trade so I'm trapped here in the dark with my ghost lurking as I fade Into dust particles streaming the crevices of empty corners hiding where I know that I will be safe floating along on my own I don't need no supporters me, myself and I is all I need in this place Tears of blood come rushing down my face the agony of it all is just too great to bear salt grains keep falling straight into my wounds in search I am of first aid so heal me if you dare Climbing up these stepping stones I keep falling down free falling in confusion as in sorrow I constantly drown anxious I am to conclude the duration of this flight for I have now perished so goodbye and goodnight By Glenn McCrary © 2010 Glenn McCrary (All rights reserved)
