Temptation
To try a drug…
Temptation boils beneath my skin…
To know its in my sight, but out of reach…
To forget about judging "friends"…
To forget about your love lacking parents…
To forget about the requirements of being me…
And to climb higher and higher…
Soar above the clouds, above the stars and above the galaxies…
Zoom by the milky way…
Pass by the burning sun…
Shooting balls through it's atmosphere…
Passing the planets one by one…
Every shinning star, burning brightly in my eyes…
The light from each one, tickles my skin…
Still i go higher and higher…
Possibly higher than anyone can possibly reach…
My destination is freedom…
I brush it's peak…
I begin to fall…
Plummeting back to our atmosphere…
In the distance earth awaits…
I'm falling to fast…
Star flash by…
Planets zoom by…
Balls of fire blast from the sun…
I hit the atmosphere…
Past the clouds of white…
Sleep takes over…
Just as I crash...
