| An unidealistic bout with suicide. | |||
Click here to read the first 75 lines of the story My life and my death Inside this cage I love. I feel the ground shake I see the omnipotent eye Barreling Barreling Barreling down the rails Promising me vengeance Redemption Forgiveness Promising me eternity At the cost of Momentary suffering Eternity unfolded into Common knowledge At the cost of Momentary suffering The gain for pain The power of forever By standing still Allowing this God To teach me mortality To make me infinity To allow me security Thousands of tons of steel Masquerading as the hand of God Masquerading as the touch of Death Masquerading Masquerading Masquerading as my liberator. I feel the smoke The eternal smoke of forever Brushing my cheek Invading my face Blinding me Showing me life If I can only stand still If I can only follow through If I can If I can If I can die I can know I can know I can know. Blood rushes Neurons fire Carrying the same message Redemption Redemption Carrying the same words Forgiveness Love Forever I feel my blood grow cold I feel my mind ablaze Fifteen years in this forsaken place Fifteen minutes was enough. Eternity becomes finite When you can see your own death Immortality is a promise Death has made One hundred miles an hour Death is making me this promise The train jerks and I hear Immortality Afterlife Heaven A plume of smoke reads Love I feel the train The stones at my feet Keep me upright The smoke in my eyes Keeps me alert The despair in my heart Keeps me determined Determined to finish Determined to end infinity. Angels haunt my dreams The earth shakes With my impending destruction And angels haunt my dreams Demons offer me love Cherishing my soul The train nearing Clamoring for me to run Move Demons screaming in my mind Promising me everything Acceptance Love Hope Freedom Acceptance Promising me every desire At the cost of a soul At the cost of being immobile Promise me static. Rusted iron spikes Binding Restraining Rusted iron spikes in my hands Stigmata Bleeding Painting the ground Feeding the static Feeding the demons Feeding the angels. A pale horse approaches Breathing smoke Barreling towards me Screaming Churning A pale horse approaches The fire burns Death is near Impact Desolation Destruction A pale horse passes And hell follows.
