Tunnel Vision

tunnel vision

I heard an echo

an  echo in my mind

my mind was going numb

going numb inside my almost empty soul

I could see a raindrop fall from the sky

the sky was opening up like a wound

a wound that could never heal

never heal from all the pain inside me

I wanted to taste the fire

the fire that already burned inside

burned inside like hot ice in my blood

my blood then fell for me tired

I reached out and touched the walls

the walls began to close in

close in on me in the darkness

the darkness that became so small

I tried to smell the air

the air was filled with empty secrets

empty secrets that only hurt when you see them

see them as you no longer know who you are
