Burn out
January 9th, 2023
Have you ever felt like the ground around you is completely falling apart?
Like sand in the sea,
Disintegrating into Sediment before your eyes?
Like a candle you've burnt at both ends,
Watching as the ravenous flames consume the Wax,
So briskly, and so elegantly, All you can do is stare.
That's how it felt,
You sit there, and watch the ground quake,
You listen to it crackle, and stiffen beneath your feet,
You watch it shift, and revolt from itself,
But you don't try and stop it,
You're mesmerized,
You're submerged in the illusion,
And you ask yourself...
What's the Point?
Tell me, what's the point?
This unwinnable, unstoppable, unobtainable Battle,
Shifts like the gravel beneath your heals,
Why do we fight?
When you can stand on the disintegration,
And you know this feeling, all too well,
So you just simply watch,
As the world Quakes.
