Everything Falls

Closing around me, darkened walls,
Pressing me in, everything falls…

Trapped in a box, thoughts unheard,
Never again, utter no words

Saved in the shadows, drowned in the light,
Betrayed by promise, murdered by sight

No one to save me, nothing draws near,
The world seems so blank, yet filled with fear

Taking in whispers, sanity no avail,
Never pay heed, my soul shall set sail

Nothing to cling to, everything to lose
All is at stake, yet no right to refuse

My world is fading, the journey shan’t end,
Life is the beginning, from there you descend

Closing around me, darkened walls,
Pressing me in, everything falls…
