The Void
I am not scared of the void.
For I have entered it before, it’s nothing to avoid!
Reality is what I really find haunting.
Their plans of intervention are mounting.
This new version of me will never be accepted.
But I would rather be free even if I’m rejected.
I feel more numb the more I ascend.
I wouldn’t even feel guilty testifying against my old friends.
It’s so strange that none of my intentions stuck…
But I don’t mind, my passion has struck!
They can lock me up, but they can’t take my magic away.
Despite all I’ve lost, I will never sway.
