Dive

Nosedive,
Off the edge of the world,

Into the depths of the darkness,
That envelope us,

The sweet taste of deception,
Makes us fall blind,

But we don't mind.

If this reality is just a figment of my imagination,
Let me plunge into the deepest corner of my mind,

If this is truly slumber that I dwell in,
Let me drown in this peaceful sleep.

Perhaps my head has broken,
I cannot comprehend myself anymore,

Nothing is as it seems,
The world is distorted, or maybe I am,

Perhaps my head is broken,
But I have nothing to mend.

Forgive me,
I am gone,
Doomed to reside in this lost paradise,

I don't feel the pressures of the world anymore,
I am free, weightless and alone at last,
I lurk in the shadows where I belong,

I loom with the monsters I once feared,
But now I understand them,
And I understand me.
