Mariana's Trench
Encephalon
Conditions remain
Required to exit from this existence
Although a solution seems impossible, I dread to fall into the cycle
Attrition attained
Desire to plunge further in the sea of humanity
Is no longer persistent or possible
I long for a time when nothing seemed impossible
This is not a welcoming
From the underworld to the overground
I belong
Anywhere
But here
The mask has fused to my face
I have become my disguise
And all I despise
As I plunge deeper still into this social abyss
All I'm taught, all I retain
Reminds me of how much I've changed
Deeper, further, I watched rebel lungs explode inside
Deeper still the sockets rupture
On they plunge and disintegrate
Become nothing, become nothing, become nothing
Become nothing more… Than desensitized drops in an immeasurable ocean
