- Thud! Tap! Screech!
lands hope
Metallic blood tastes good i think,
as my heart enters my mouth,
From the heights of despair I think,
as I watch falling hope.
Silence! Hum! Silence!
This feeling oppresses
Quiet walls close in
suffocating me
why this claustrophobia,
when I stand atop a cliff?
Boom!- Blows reason
but insanity- ah! sweet oblivion-
is slow to creep in
perhaps there is hope yet
lying at the cliff's bottom,
perhaps
I will jump I think
thought, think again,
flicker, flicker
then the leap
Am I dead?- Silence again
Less oppressive, perhaps even friendly
where is hope?
was there really any?
No! I think
I never even left the cliff's face
But I did not fall, though I leaped
"You leaped, Yes!, then started to fly",
the silence answers me quietly
Yes! that must be it
Woosh, Swish, Whirl!
I fly to hope
Hope is the goal, with it comes life
I fly to hope on new wings
the map is skectched underneath feathers
beneath the wings
I will die if I land short of on hope
so I fly to hope, though I cannot read the map
