After Terminal Life
Silence rests deep within my mind,And I wish to break the barriers of it,
Only to allow sound to flow through,
The cracks of this deeper wall of nothing;
Sapphire skies search to relax my mind,
And I wish to soothe my soul with it,
Only to allow it to haunt me with great intent,
And wallow in and out of my inner core;
Misinterpretation seeks to dismember,
And I wish to hold and squeeze it tight,
Only to compress the vague memories,
Of the past and destroy them without fear;
Terror screams out for dreadful attention,
And I wish to break the bars of my mind,
Only to allow me to embrace the life,
I am now and forevermore given to live;
The past reeks of unending misfortune of despair,
And I wish to erase those terrible memories,
Only to become the man I once knew,
Long ago, before animosity overcame my life;
Curiosity now overwhelms my mind,
And I wish to scan my brain for answers,
Only to allow them to create this new me,
This man within the mirror I call myself.
