Middle Years: Beginning to End
July 15, 2019
Catch me drifting near the clouds
where no one will ever hurt me
Yet the most powerful weapon here
is something dark and extraordinary
They say your inner thoughts
will guide you on your journey
Yet, once you reach a certain stop
they will combine into an army
They will rip at every piece of you
until they're sure you're dead
But once this mania buries over
you will be standing -- or so they said
You see, young traveler, here's the thing
It is impossible to heal from any mourning ring
Because the scars will stay
and emotions last
Yet one thing's for sure,
it is all in the past
