I SANK

 

I sank into my world

my illusions already built me a castle 

it’s handrails already rusty to crumble

darkness hovers in anarchy 

I sank into my doom

beautiful roses lights up the gail

my hands bloody from the caress 

a bloodless coup I cannot win

I sank into my emotions 

a world of pain masked behind smiles 

me, a walking conflagration in disguise 

thousand thorns housed under my skin 

I sank into my oblivion 

the mirage I craved for as a child 

like a dark art making me thirst 

now it all makes sense to appease my soul 

I sank into my psyche 

a once beautiful garden tainted now with pain

smeared flowers with withered fruits 

a sight never to be imagined 

I sank into time 

knowing fully well our life is short 

our existence is nothing but a farce

and epicaricacy with caricature
