AcrophobiaAtop this hill I stare at the cloudsa veil of grey that's hiding countless mysteries I want to climb, I want to soar so much further than anyone's gone before But I fear that if I let go I will never be held again Over the years I learned how to fly but I never learned how to initiate With fleeting hesitation I open the airlock doors preparing to escape from gravity's embrace They say the void stares back into you but it's nice to have some company for a change Lost in the starry night the sun's glow starts to dim why do I crave its warmth? Its rays corrode my skin I just want to subvert my archaic programming I'm conditioned to remain the same The night sky beckoned me an ocean stretching endlessly but I don't know where I can go from here I'm anchored to the Earth by longing and dependency even when there's no weight that pulls me down I return and see my home is in flames I regret that in my haste I forgot to say goodbye I'm sorry... |
