Melting
I feel like I’m falling down into the abyss
The abyss of my mind
My thoughts are melting together
They form one, big, jumbled mess
I cannot decipher what’s happening
I continue to fall and fall deeper into my mind
No knowledge of where I’m going
No remembrance of what I’ve left behind
It’s like there’s no beginning to the end
It’s like there’s no end to the beginning
It’s a never-ending cycle of fear
The fear of myself
The fear of my words
The fear of life
The fear of lies
The list goes on and on and on
Just like the emptiness in my heart
The hole in my head
What was supposed to be there?
Who was I?
Who am I?
These questions are things I may never know
I may never try to know
My mind is melting
My fear
It’s growing bigger and bigger each day
But what am I afraid of?
I don’t even know anymore
I can’t tell
It would be easier to fly
Fly away from this body
From this life
From this world
Into the skies
And out from the abyss
