Your World

From your world of darkness

You see light

Close enough to reach

But effort, stretching to reach

Few try

Even less make it

You stay

Wallow in the dark abyss

Too much time, too much effort

Don’t want to follow

Passing of time

You’re still wading

Further, further

Glance back, still there?

Yes

Still there

Keep going, check back less

And less

Still there?

Yes

Dimmer

But yes

Over your head

Drowning in the sugar-coated evil

Mistake! No!

So you turn

Struggle, fight, pull

Light! A speck, but light!

Effort, effort

Gotta make it, gotta go back

Gotta make things right

Pride, arrogance

Push people away

You can do it by yourself

But you can’t

Slowly

Slowly, sinking back

Blackness

Crying, giving up

Look back

Still there?

No

Gone

Terror, fear

Immersed in dark

Alone

Save me?

No one can

Punishment:

Alone
