I’ve felt the fall with more than my arms
(wannabe wings)
I’ve embraced the silence with more than a scream
I’ve run with crippled thoughts
Forgot
Relived
Redrew
Renamed
Same old lines for same old actors
Same upside down scenery
Same worn out stage


Nothing changes, we’ve realized
Too late to make a difference
Worn out by emotions
Unable to do more than smile
Trapped in our bodies
Cages devoured by rust,
from within


Now we’re waiting for something
Our minds cannot fully grasp
Bathing in the sunlight
Smiling mummies
Preserved only by hope
And fear of the sleep
With no one to wake us from it
