A/N: Hello my Mooners.

This is a new poem I wrote a few days ago, I was inspired by a band's name "Moon Taxi" so I decided to write this sad poem. It has perhaps 2 metaphors in it. At least I tried, I'm not very good at writing metaphorical poems. It's the thought that counts, right?

I hope you guys like the poem, if you do then please don't forget to VOTE & COMMENT! :)

P.S: I would like to thank my new friend unknownpoems_ for helping me finish off the poem as I was stuck and unsure of how to continue and end the poem. Thank you so much! :) Another quick note, I also would like to thank my little star and friend FetchingPenumbra for creating the amazing cover. Thank you! :)

There is no getting off this ride,

As the world is just a blurriness,

It becomes a distant memory,

Too far gone, to be reached out for,

The pain in my chest gets heavier,

The colors fade, the world's

In black and white, outside the window

There are hurricanes in the eyes of women and children,

A shadow now illuminates on

Their pale, hurt faces,

There's no will to live, days feel

Everlasting, knife in the chest

Presses harder, and I cannot sleep,

I refuse to rest. Demons weep,

Yet silence around me traps the sound,

Peace is something I have yet to search for,

In this gloomy time, I wish to escape,

Go places I've never been...

Take risks I would never usually take,

Try and find a nice calm hiding place

Where dreaded faces are not seen

 And the demons cries don't disturb my dreams

The toll from this ride is massive

But you would be mistaken,

To say that I cannot handle

A couple miles more,

It says on the screen.
