Crossing over boundaries to face unfamiliar territory
Abandoning shackles in hopes of encountering deliverance
Discovering illusions without perceiving them as such
Enamored by their very existence, soothed and consoled
Preoccupied by their calls of comfort and comprehension

Forfeiting self in the deception of mortality to believe in things that do not exist
Wandering through a craggy passage that holds desolation as well as promises
Balancing on a bluff that is poised on the brink of sanity
Despair at the base, serrated and suspenseful, waiting for the fall
Anticipating with a hunger for the soul at the edge

Not fathoming the precarious position in which I have placed myself
Delving further inside the fantasy, succumbing entirely
Giving myself up to it only to uncover the reality which was concealed
Falling from the precipice toward the unforgiving truth
Which stabs like a dagger through my heart inducing agony

Suffering from the self inflicted wound and dragging myself
I veer from the reality of the situation only to find myself in yet another illusion
Caught unsuspecting into a web of deceit that I had woven
Now, a morsel to be feasted upon by the spider of fate
To suck me dry of sanguine fluid and abandon the sheath in search of more
