One Final Moment

Looking over the edge

Feeling weak with no grace

Sounds of voices I couldn’t erase

Sky was bleeding, the earth stood still

One final moment to break the will

Phantasms of who I’d been

Tentacles crawl to cover my skin

One final moment, no looking back

I lit the fuse, the world went black

Silence helped me find my name

Not a victim—this is my domain

One final moment, feeling the strain

The whisper of truths we fear

Scars leave a souvenir

Drown me in your shame

hanging below to play your game!

Goodbye to screams before a rebirth

A vow etched deep into the earth

Mesmerizing staying awake

Break the will, your final mistake

One final moment, the final remark

Light up the night, or dwell in the dark

No more shadows, I light the flame

Nothing ever feels the same

One final moment—pitch black
