Zenith. #Z2AChallenge

"We want to reach the stars..."(I will let the irony sink in)

-ak

Sometimes we try,

And we try to be a little better

While we have a feeling

A feeling, that we were never good enough

We are not worthy enough

While we dwell in the past, thinking

What we could have done, 

What else we could have done, differently

We are lost, in the space that so binds us

So vast, yet so suffocating.

We are suffocating in our own breath.

We want a way out, while we battle

Battle for the last fragments we so hold dear.

Pause, we pause with deep breaths

Deep breaths, that should have soothed

That should have calmed the mind,

Instead, it begins to drown us

Drown in the perpetual misery 

The world we created around us.

We were never perfect

We were never right

We only know what we were led to believe

Then why do we feel so lost.

Then why do we feel so alone

We never understood life. 

We thought we knew

We thought we knew better

But we never understood

We were at the zenith once

But the silent whispers gave us away

"For it has all been a lie."
