Maybe it was too huge of a dream,
a fantasy that I desired deeply upon,
poured out my heart completely,
bare and naked for all the eyes to see.
and amidst those blinking pupils,
were those of beast never seen,
monsters that did things insane.
Yet, blinded by my desire, I was blind to the truth around.
The earth stopped me from moving, but I leaped across and went,
the wind held me back, yet I fought until the end,
misunderstanding them for hurdles,
I cursed at the flood and the rain,
screamed at the sun in the midday heat,
and yelled for the moon when the night began.
A single pause and a single look,
I would have seen the eyes,
maybe it was the downfall I deserved,
for my incompetence and impatient soul.
The world had given up on me,
gave up and left me to fend myself,
it was the retribution to my greed,
the damnation for the ways I believed.
One step in and I knew, knew how it was going to go down
one mere step, I realized those warnings,
one mere step, I saw those menacing eyes,
this path was to perdition, a bridge to nowhere but the end.
