Fenestra

From a distant land it summons me

An unknown alien entity

A glimpse of a new and solemn peace

I will proceed

Let’s bring these worlds together

I crept through the window of your mind

I’ll guide you to the other side beyond your own

A wonderment of such a sight - I will bestow

I try with great endeavour

Piercing through to the rationale to find

A fantasy, a fairytale: A dream-come-true

A fall of grace, a lack of faith: Hollow pursuits

I pray that we make it out okay

It feels like this is power play

Your words don’t convince me otherwise

And neither does the look in your eyes

I can’t hold on to another shell

Of something that we call our former selves

I put what is left of my faith in you

And follow you into another hell

Watch me drift alone

I don’t wanna be here any longer than I need to

I hold you at a distance in the fear that you won’t let me leave you

I’m gonna jump through the window

Watch me drift alone
