Ascension

Contributed by TheSpiritx on Tuesday, 8th October 2002 @ 09:30:00 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry



I sever myself from reality,
And I sever myself from them.
I sever myself from emotion,
As I ascend.

I see the world creep downward,
Into its own abyss.
Mundane life loses meaning,
And I rise above.

High into the cerulean heavens,
The ladder slowly leads.
I step on the next rung,
And I rise above.

They call to me to return.
They seek for me to fall,
Yet I still climb higher.
I rise above them all.

Above the clouds I strive to reach,
Way into the air,
Yet the top is shrouded,
Cloaked,
Hidden,
By the haze of the sky I sought for love.

I yearn for ascension,
And find only emptiness.
I desire for attention,
And find only emptiness.
I long for warm embrace,
The embrace of skin upon skin,
The embrace of heart upon heart,
The embrace of soul upon soul,
And find only emptiness.

And I plummet.
Downward.
I fall.
Back to earth.
Back to the world.
Back to the truth.
Back to pain, torture and grief,
But back to life, happiness and joy.
Back to reality,
I descend.

god...this was soooo beautiful. A bit sad tho' hey? What were you looking for...? I know u expressed urself as needing to escape from every1 and everything...and then when you finally got to where you wanted to be...you found it cold and empty, and didn't want it anymore. man...reality sometimes does makes u wanna cringe but then u find little things...precious little memories that makes it all better. The sun starts shining through...I promise. Just hang in there. Happiness always.

i think we all have to visit this feeling at some time, i know it reached me as a memory of a feeling experienced, a yearning dreaming for someone special to share feelings with then the awful cold emptiness a lonely reality only exacerbated by the dream
