Masks of shame
Eyes of lies
Words of poison
Breaths of toxins.
I am too far gone to be brought back
You brought me here, now take me
I trusted you and you helped me up on this ledge
The only thing you have ever said that i believed was
Jump.
And so i do, the feeling of anything but pain and fear is better
I have been falling endlessly into something that is not the future
but is the past.
Time cannot stop me know, it has been a burden on my neck.
For now i am falling, longer than all the rest
I am calm, sane, and glorious.
epic...love the opening. It reminds me of the witches from Macbeth...putting together their foul brew to see the future for him...besides that I wonder about the use of contradictions....jumping to the past, feeling pain and fear and turning to calm, sane, glorious....is it the feeling of freedom that comes from a finally made decision?
