"Echoes of Defiance"

Thinking, chaotic thoughts -

Alone, deep in knowledge,

Too deep, dug a grave;

I find myself lost.

There seems to be no end,

I find myself alone in a room

Where my reality exists -

And no one can tell me otherwise...

I find the truth to be harrowing.

People ignore willingly;

I reoccur, trapped in survival.

Thus I find myself repeating

The same old pattern again

Just to survive this cruel game.

This insane game has its perks,

You have to play by the rules.

But I do not play by the rules;

I have created my own conditions

Just to survive this endeavor.

Snapping traps and chaos,

The claptrap spits and screams;

Echoes in the vast distance -

Where haunting memories play.

These desperate endeavors

End up in interesting places,

The absolute unknown -

Desecrated into nothing.

Despair, disparage -

Never knowing the end

To the beginning -

We choke on the flames.
