4 Walls
by Paul


Bottomless ,this pit i step foot in
always breaching the bottom
but always continually falling
The outter walls opening
as to no sooner close back in
This flight i've taken deep within
A continuesss, never ending system of rock
an enclosur of darkness, lightless so it seems
Out of reach to mankind and no where close to grip
I see my life in my mind but it no sooner disappears
a tumble of confusion, an avalanch of thoughts
i spread my wings to fly but can't, there is no gale to catch
beating my arms faster and faster in futility
i scream till the my lungs collapse
no one hearing a sound i've shouted within my void of reality
A never ceasing cry for help to distant unknowing ears
a loss of strength within, i become one with the nothingness
growing moss like the rocks wich have become my world
losing touch with the world beyond this abis
unnoticing the arms around my waist
hoisting me above and out of this coma
i've drained myself of all energy and refuse to emerge
as all my loved ones show their strength in words
nothing can return me to this world
to this world i've lost touch with
but constantly fighting this truth
my faith gone, i give myself to the darkness below
so that i may enter a deep, halcyon repose
suddenly, an explosion below sends me sailing towards the sky
and With new eyes i can see the concern on the faces
of those who've been in reach and i've pushed away
A smile once forgotten shows on the face i blankly stare at
a mirror of everything once thought loss.
i see myself again now in this mirror
not alone but surrounded by friends
