A life well-lived Is the crown jewel I yearn for To grow weary with age And to wither thoughtlessly Beyond the roads I’ve tattered with inquiry I’ll disolve peacefully With a mind shroud in wonder Beyond the waves I’ve cleaved with eagerness The dark shall fall Graciouly, kind, and sweet I implore to be drawn…

Like scalding magma The panic surged Raised from the caverns Of my guilt-laden conscience And yet Onward I trailed Through the sweltering hellscape I knew by name As wreckless thoughts Raved madly within Blistering my insides With the coursing of young distress Still I trailed Maimed and ragged Toiling forward Drenched in dismay I strived…
