destination

i could have been someone, but who might i have been?

just maybe there's still a chance.

i need to turn to the mirror to face the one true god,

and decide where the path leads, myself.



i've been losing hope; already tied the rope.

there's nothing left. the mind is a dope.

all of them turn against me. the flags are burning.

all just warning signs, as life cycles forth.



always thought no harm could come, but everyday i'm the target.

those who don't know me just want to bring me down.

those who do know me want to help their cause.



and i begin my descent..

but this should not be my DESTINATION. i just have to live out this lie.

there's nothing really worth living for, so i make up something to keep me alive



everything is on fire, but i won't open my eyes.

i can't handle the outside, it's more corrupt than inside.

just a passerby, i want to stay alive.

but for what real reason? what is my DESTINATION?



i never meant to turn against you, to ruin all you are.

and now as you're falling, you can't bring me down with you.

nothing lasts forever, and i know you'll just put me down again.

what is the final solution? when everyone turns away, leaving me betrayed,

where is my DESTINATION, then?



there is no way to escape. each day is merely a variation of the last.

there must be some method; a way to break away from everything.

these chains bind me to the ground, immovable, there must be a way out

an escape, that is where my DESTINATION lies, a place to crawl out

these bars of iron, i am barred, all is broken, a barrier i cannot get past



i collapse like a dead leaf, tried so hard but had to fall,

all gray and shriveled

such is life, forever autumn, always dying away,

but soon come spring shall born anew

a second chance after the winter, these cold dark days,

like shivered steel



my DESTINATION lies ahead, it has not been reached yet, i have quite a way left

like it was at the center, i am still going through it yet, and shall reach the outside in time
