forgiveness


back against the wall
my mind fades away
no more colour now
only shades of grey
mixed between the dark and the light
my life has suddenly become neutral
a victim of routine
succumbed to the regularity
mind cracked, soul slacked
body vacates the scene
goes to hide in the shade
or is it darkness seeping through the bars in this cell of light i have made
so i turn away
looking at the ground
slowly accepting my fate
that i am just another to waste away
into the bowels of my own insanity
my own mind has failed me
but i forgive myself.....
