I'm bored....
And this is angsty!
There is a pain that burns so deep,
An unbearable fire that incinerates the heart.
It is insuppressible like the reactor of a star,
Blazing yet for some reason like ice.
A frosty chill worse than the artic,
And just as desolate.
No hope lives here,
It has vanished like the air in a vacuum.
Sucked out with the force of ten thousand
Hungry children slurping on a slurpie.

Once the flames have consumed,
The ice has burned,
And the area evacuated,
A small frail figure is left,
Crippled and broken on the ground.
Yet this beaten and crushed soul still shines.
For it foolishly clings to nothingness
Hoping that its heart rings true...
It is the only thing holding up our hero.
Who will ascend from his journey
Through the inferno and purgatory
To be united in paradise

But if he fails to hold on
May the powers that be
Have mercy on his damned soul.
