I

continue to walk this

dead unknown road.

Tripping over rocks,

falling through a void.

But there is no death in

this land.

I am trapped

for eternity.

Bound to this land

by hands unseen.

There is no point in my

kicks and screams

for this is purgatory.

It favors no man.

This is about the lost feeling that lingers in teens when growing up and finding themselves.
