A futile attempt the world to make him realize

  Or so I thought

  Inside him a change I lit ablaze

  His demons he fought

  A runaway child also swept him behind my back

  The firebird took his pinion while in his guard he lacked

  And I can't catch up no matter how fast I run

  The flames of change turned to that of a rebellion

  The axis he crushed beneath his feet like a stallion

  The flames of rebellion trigger an explosion

  The bridge that once stood to connect now leaving a canyon

  The flames of the explosion engulf the flesh in the fire

  Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.

  Burning along with the child's scream a sloth's desire

  From the top, I see the girl's silhouette and her disapproving face

  "One too many worlds that you fell inside have fallen out of place."

  Her fear echoes the same as mine

  A battle won't occur as she looks away from my cries

  Hesitation washes over her dexterous abilities

  She too wondering if she was told lies

  The flames of change turned to that of a rebellion

  The axis he crushed beneath his feet like a stallion

  The flames of rebellion trigger an explosion

  The bridge that once stood to connect now leaving a canyon

  The flames of the explosion engulf the flesh in the fire

  Burning along with the child's scream a sloth's desire

  And before I can mourn that he is gone

  The world itself swallows me whole

  The allure of my music that once made him come my way

  Now I hear it again as my vision begins to fade

  Was I wrong to play along the lines of hope?

  What is the purpose of this and the world's before?

  With eyes open I gradually see the same scenery

  Kneeling down the rock in empty space under the starry sky

  And now I begin to see the same windows causing a connection

  The bridges still standing to other worlds begin for correction
