Out of Body
I take a step out of life
Just a step to the right
Exit my body, still standing beside
Decide to be tied
To what you believe
My emotion is an ocean
You cannot perceive
I will not deceive,
Defy, or despise you
I will comply, identify,
Justify, and revive you
It is why I cry and fight for you
I deny the skies and give my life for you
I take a step out of fear
Just to step into hate
Exit the darkness, into what I relate
Enraged and agitated
Within my contemplatable fate
My emotion is an ocean
With irate 40 foot waves
I wait to irritate,
Invade, and inscribe you
While I evaporate and assassinate
Every smile inside you
It is why I try and wait for you
I imply I’m perfect and break for you
I take a step to return
Yet anchor one foot behind
I stop in the middle, and time just rewinds
My heart breaks three times,
My leg snaps, every limb bleeds
I am also dealt the pain
I once would, oh so easily, breed
I fall to my knees
Not in pleasure or grief
Just lifelessly fell
And felt great pressure relieved
Dreading to be something
Excepting deceased
Persistently planting my feet
With my head hung to my breast
Saw nothing, and realized
That this was a good death
Looked to my right
Saw discontent, more lies
Falsity, famine, and fallible lives
False hope, and love only meant to destroy
Guns are emotions, while hearts are just toys
I am poised and unstable
Infuriated and calm
My voice is a fable
While all truth is gone
So if life a dream
Death is a step
No one truly knows
What lies beyond death
This whole thing is a cycle
Just waiting to break
And it is my duty
No…my calling!
No…my honor!
My fate.
