End

Where am I? Here, somewhere, anywhere.

Far removed from everything I used to fear

An immeasurable distance keeps me alive

Yet, it is consuming me inside 

Rarely, I begin to ponder

Breathe a sigh of hard-earned relief

Reflect upon each triumph I achieved

And question existence's meaning 

An unknown place inhabited by fools

An unfamiliar place I barely call home

Paradise of the wealthy and respected

A depth of hell in innumerable aspects

This very moment what shall I become?

A stranger at one place

Immigrant in the other

Two different versions of myself staring at each other 

Bright smile, stretched from ear to ear

Moments slipping through my fingers

Teardrops tracing paths down my face

Concrete petrifies as I linger 

Must remain in one place

One position, one mind of state

No way to turn, no means of escape

Must remain here

Buried in the grave
