Freedom is a privilege
An honor so to speak
Forgot to take life slowly
Not afraid to let myself be
Silver webs trapping the starving
Feeding things that are meant to be
Still trapped within this world
Darkened from the heart
Swallowed by curiosity
Wisdom has torn apart
Whispers are way too silent
Bright shadows fill the air
Taken all the oxygen
Life just isn't fair
Freedom is a privilege
An honor so to speak
Forgot to take life slowly
But i guess that's the end for me

I can't quite remember what made me write this piece, but i believe that this is the way that the depressed feel when they are just about to let go of themselves.
