I Am a Legend

Don't tell me to be calm,
Don't tell me things will be okay.

How can you look into my eyes
      and not see into the other dimensions?

Do you not see me creepin' up behind you as I
    whisper into your ear?

Can you see the kaleidoscope colors of my wings
     of change that is coming?
        The end is near and you're too blind to see it.

My body may be falling apart with my Lupus illness, But
    my mind, heart, and soul will live on for eternity as I soar
        with my wings of change dancing throughout our universe.

While you remain on this earthly plain being transparent and stuck in pause...

              I AM A LEGEND
       
      But you, you are nothing but a memory to me,
                 an empty shell of existence.
