as i lay upon the ground
to myself i think
what a mediocre life i live
within my naive existence.
suddenly the air grows cold
and a silent breeze flows by.
no fear no pain
not a word is spoken.
just the realization of how relieving it is
to finally die for a minute.
no sight no sound
no movement at all.
just a resplendent clamness.
although there is no beating
within my silent chest
i take in the icey air
and come to a new realization;
the sun will not rise tomorrow.
i've plunged myself into a place
where eternal darkness thrives.
where my orchids wilt
and eyes turn grey.
forever trapped in a midnight world.
someone please save me.
but oh they do not know.
that ive stopped my heart
unknowingly by free will.
i cry out knowing i am alone
i want to be rescued.
suddenly before my eyes
an orb does appear
showing myself lying still
i am but a dark figure
but wait
there is a small light within me
the glow pace of my use to be heart
i reach out to grasp the embery glow
and suddenly it fades.
this orb has shown me what i've done.
it tauhgt me a lesson after the test.
to my own sorrow i now know;
do not travel to the unknown.
if your heart is uncertain about your map.
you cannot always turn back.
and what you think is sudden relief
may forever come to be.
