Crumbling, crumbling

Down, down

The life I’ve never known 

is falling to the ground

Who am I?

It cannot be found

Once it was so simple

Now everything’s a rimple

My thoughts twist,

Into void they turn

Pain is not a stranger

But I yearn, oh I yearn

The point?

I find it not, I only burn

The world is baseless

Humanity is tasteless

The end:

What is it?

Eternal emptiness?

Or the pain of killing us?

The broken tongues

Are tempting lust

Nobody will free us

What’s all the fuss?

The flame burns on

Do we be?

Or are we all

In a dream?

I cannot find

The end of this scheme

All of it is just so extreme

The world tilts ever so slightly

But it falls the greatest tree

So falling down we go

Into the great unknown

Don’t you dare flee
