a voice rang out through the corridor
of another heartless plea
invisible twist thought the turnstiles
could this calling be me?
bloodshot awakening
the ringing in my ears
look above to the noose's bellowing
this could once render all of my fears
flash of conscience
numb of desire
giving all for nothing
giving all to quelch this fire
that burns savishly within
to understand this bitter end
is to find a new way to begin
who would aknowledge
such a ritualistic demise
through a search for a maker
an uneasy compromise
we spend a lifetime for an answer
when we can reach it in seconds
take the rope
and welcome as it beckons
yet i'm still searching
for a hopefull tomorrow
a universal calm
no need to beg steal or borrow
but this happens within dreams
secure of harms way
funny how nothing's as it seems
when lucid eyes see the grey
the fibers hold tight
as it's grip tells of fate
I only wished but never quite
to see a future worldly great......
