Visions

My future brings me great despair
for I have already lost what I hold dear;
in this world, there’s nothing left for me
that is why I chose to drift so freely

I’ve casted away all that remains
I’ve given all that I could…
I’ve given up on myself
despite all those who supported me

Baring such a curse with no cure,
I stood alone, so dark, so cold.
All the love that once existed…
drained away by a mere voice

Such a voice is poison to my ears
yet I love it so, it has become
the blood that I bleed,
the blood that I shed…

The air so alive, so free
raging winds tear through the trees.
Ah, its time to end the suffering;
yes I jumped into the wind

As I jumped I felt so free
like all my troubles went away
not a doubt in my mind
at this point I was fully alive

I closed my eyes
and took a deep breath
as I came crashing down
into the sea, cold and dark

I descended slowly
accepting my fate
I felt free in the water
as I did in the air

In my mind I knew,
I found my way home
my way of escaping
my new life

Just as I hit the bottom of the sea,
I heard a voice that spoke these words
“Johnny, we made it to the beach. Wake up!”
I opened my eyes; only to relive my vision…
