Aeon

I walk alone
In the maze of my own heart
It feels as though
I'm walking in circles

I've been this way before
Stone grey walls
Stretch out for miles

Prison walls
That can't be broken

They shatter me again
Years feel like decades
Decades like centuries

Centuries like millennia
Millennia like aeons
Though chronologically I am young

Voices from outside
Echo violently in my ears
Each one makes me feel
More and more alone

Like daggers to the soul

Their messages vary
"You are not alone"
"You will always be nothing"

What should I believe?

I am lost and confused
Slowly I wander
As the aeons continue to pass

My spirit is lost
My soul is dead

My life slowly drains away
I fall to the ground
Faint and weak

I hit the ground hard
But feel no pain

I draw my last breath and die alone
