In this place full of demons,
Following through me like a river,
I’ve been struggling,
Hallucinating,
Just to try and see things clearer,
But there’s no light.
On the top of the mountain,
Feeling my feet up against the edge,
I wouldn’t feel myself fall,
If I took a step off this edge,
But I could try.
Abundance of forest,
That I’m racing through,
But there seems to be no end,
No finishing line,
Just true,
Darkness.
A haunted voice,
That races through my head,
Is it my self consciousness,
Or the fear of what I’ve just said?
I don’t know.
Nothing seems real,
And nothing seems sure,
Just obstacles, illusions.
A twisted metaphor.
Am I just imagining them around,
For,
The sake of it?
I feel so detached,
But I’m attracted to the feeling,
My eyes open wide,
Glancing at the ceiling,
Is this my world?
Maybe in a normal, nuclear space,
I’d struggle to survive,
But in my own world,
I’m on top,
If I may put it that way.
There is no beginning,
Nor is there an end,
But I have all these thoughts,
That I can’t comprehend,
So I’ll just,
Pretend.
