The lights shine bright;
Luminous, I crave.
A life resplendent:
Monotony, I stave.
Manically frantic;
A thousand times more.
Reachable horizons;
A world to explore.
Flying here,
Soaring there—
Everywhere
I'll play.
Impossibly
Unstoppable. It
must be done,
today.
Tackled by shackles;
Unavoidable decline.
Ticking liberation;
My freedom—not mine.
Falling here,
Sinking there—
Nothing
but dismay.
Chillingly
undeniable:
A bitter,
Flowerless May.
