I'm Your Passenger

out here i feel alone, yet complete
like this is all i know
all i own
outside of myself
i see that i'm surviving
everything is behind my eyes and easy to hide
deep inside, guilt gnaws away
but, it's ok, cuz i know that one day
even this will go away
everything is dying now
once again you come apart
i'm so sick of this
promises made, to keep the peace
yet pieces still fall, like the suicidal shards
of promises not just broken, but shattered
wake up in chains
once more, a slave
another payment ot the debt i begged for
captivated, i follow you once more
my plied piper of pain
you take me for one last ride
around you, i'm helpless, enchanted
like a child, to me everything is new again
but, i see that, this time, your smile isn't one of kindness
before, i would have been afraid
but, now, i don't care
there is Nothing Left
i embrace this, our final dance
these last moments somehow mean everything
crying silently, as i hear the words from nowhere,
"i forgive you"
quiet desperation now
as i mutter, over and over, "thank you"
washing my hands of everything and everyone
then everything just falls away
and, for a moment, i feel like i'm flying
falling into whatever abyss will have me
i feel no fear, for somehow i know that,
somewhere far below,
their are arms ready to catch me
finally free

It's beautiful in it's mystery. I'm not quite sure what to pull out of it. It almost seems like the person in this poem is dying and is seeking forgiveness for it. Maybe? I love the way it ends though, "finally free" I think a lot of us want that. Great write!
