The words resonated far louder than the sounds of bullets and cannons, “Fall where you stand!”
thus my life rose and fell before i could even realize what was happening, any greatness ever held by me for even a milisecond has evaporated into nothingness leaving not a single remnant of it ever existing. my mind is decaying and no longer is so maliable, nor capable of the things it once was. and so it goes, full circle – from nothing to nothing. the only thing i ever wanted to be was normal, and happy – in pursuance of the world’s declaration of normalcy i lost myself. in hindsight i wonder if it was worth it or if i ever had a chance at all. oh sleep, why can’t you hold me in your clutches and never let go?
