Falling away

by Elton   Nov 4, 2004


Please help me cause I'm falling down this endless pit.
So far from ground, I can't see the bottom.
I'm in so deep, I can't see the top.

Why me? I never asked to be here.
What's my purpose?
Why no answers? Even with me holding it so dear?

And so my life has been a sea of questions.
Ruling me, tormenting me, dismissing me.
And still I cannot drown in peace.

My faith is disappearing.
Blades of grass in the wind.
Broken, bended, bruised, I don't know anymore.

Why not feeding me with what I seek?
Am I not hungry enough?
Or will begging do the trick?

On my last breath I am.
I can't hold out for long.
No, I don't want to.

It's all so easy to let go.
Nobody cares anyway.
Looking north facing away from me.

Not seeing my pain.
Ignoring me.
All so easy...

One step is all it takes.
One comment, sign, look,
to erase me from my fate

And still darkness blankets all but you.
Will I see above and beyond before my time?
I think my life is overdue.

Unless I feel the caressing morning sunlight
and misty cologne of clouds departing
overwhelming me.
