Flickering lights

And heavy droplets

Rain down on

This umbrella world.

 

Creating a sequence

To claim the naked souls

Of those trying to escape reality.

 

Standing in the stillness

We switch to a beautiful nightmare

Awaiting us beyond

The wall we’ve shaped.

 

Shooting stars

No longer hold true

To the wishes, we’ve made.

 

Keeping our distance

Is the only consequence

We face,

To protect ourselves

From our warranted fate.
