My consciousness is drifting
Searching for a place to adhere
Expecting a profound miracle
To alienate life's futile fear
I don't comprehend this realm
To be plucked from it's clutch
Yet we all must suffer in cycles
Neither appreciates how much
Clinging to this filthy thread
I've tolerated societies facade`
Cries, hopeless mingled chaos
None listened or thought it odd
I lose my grasp and I'm slipping
Into this abyss claimed release
Is this what I had so longed for
Is this where I may find peace
