A Matter Of Time
I am standing on the edge of contemplation
while I despise this trap and current situation
summoned into silence and submission
yet the acts they only worsen my condition
Ignited by the flames, my private hell
For the darkest pit of pain, into I fell
Well aware unveiling is severe
And everything I've known will disappear
Biding time with quiet introspection
Longing for respite and resurrection
Knowing that I have no other choice
Merely waiting for the courage of my voice...
