The rows of flowers 

falling vastly from soul

As the air begins to toxicate 

The damp petals taking a toll

So my thoughts begin to race


My feet stagger in a turn fee

My mind shaking its hardest

If the heart feels full let it be

But whos to say thats the conflict?


I wander further from the safety

Feeling weary and heart shattering

My body giving in, my soul eighty.

Is this worth the basic pattering?


As i step near the far off clifts

I see the light of fire.

So warm and bright i shift.

Oh how it fills me with desire


I plunge into the darkness

Never knowing light

so whos to say i lack confidence

Even if i still lack a fight


The cold hands that grab

All panic in motion

Stomach turning, possibly stabbed

Causing such unwanted commotion


My lungs give way

Feeling nothing but pain

Stomach going astray

Oh the agony of fame.


Was it worth it

Not one bit 

But what if it was

Mostly likely not or this wouldnt be a fuss


Was this not enough?

Can i not be saved

In the endless waves of my mind

Only im the one to blame


No this isnt fair

Yes it is

No its not.

Yes it is.


SHUT UP!.........

………….

………….

………….


Sounds pulse my ears 

My hands unknowingly uncovering them

Washing away my fears

With the waves that bring me back to shore


I collapse into its arms

The warm embrace

There is no more alarm

As tears are wiped from my face


My heart begins to ignite once more

For i have no fear

My body melts into his touch

As he continues to hold me near


My mind goes silent.
