The Next Chapter

Waiting is over,

The dream has passed

The pictures have melted to nothing

The candle has gone out.


I will have to get out

Out of this current situation

Escape the feeling that has kept a hold of me

Held me as a prisoner

Not able to escape its grasp


I have been trying to escape its grasp

Once I realized that it had a hold of me

Escaping looking for any exit possible

Even if it was a darker path

A path whose destination was uncertain

A mystery a new adventure


After finally finding an escape from my prison

The only thing I have known for what seemed

An eternity of waiting for someone to release me

If given the chance I would turn around and go

Go back to the prison although it might not have been everything

Everything I wanted it to be

It was too good to not want.


I know I can’t be that prisoner anymore because

The prison has started to eat me alive

Starting to take hold and ripping me apart

Tearing the flesh off my lifeless bones


As I await this next chapter to start

All I can wonder is what could have happened

I hear the prison call back

As hard as it is I must keep moving forward
