Pain.
So strong
So unbelievably silent.
So incredibly sweltering and pathetic.
How many are there? The walking dead?
The heartbroken? The rejected and demonized?
Feared by those who dare not understand.
Scorned. Forgotten. Does anyone see?
Does anyone care? To free these
Pain.
So strong
So unbelievably silent.
So incredibly sweltering and pathetic.
How many are there? The walking dead?
The heartbroken? The rejected and demonized?
Feared by those who dare not understand.
Scorned. Forgotten. Does anyone see?
Does anyone care? To free these

Frozen. Shut down like a switch.
Dissolved in despair. No
tears. No memory.
No more
prison?
But time

when suddenly it stops.
Frozen. Shut down like a switch.
Dissolved in despair. No
tears. No memory.
No more
pain.
Not

you would

A simple door, held from within.
There to be opened.
Or forever shut.

Not
the leap

A simple door, held from within.
There to be opened.
Or forever shut.
The choice
is yours.
Who knew,
within this infinite dream,
the limitations of thought? That like Occam's
razor, the answer with the fewest
unnecessary assumptions
is most often
right?
That what
we all want is
but the same exact thing?
Life without death. Laughter without
pain. Knowledge without limits.
Is that, my friend, really
too much to
ask?
