The day it quit being funny
By Flying indigo express
There was nothing truly outstanding about the day it quit being funny,
everything seemed the same, but somehow it became different
The empty sound of the voices calling for themselves all sounded the same,
but now I could feel the pull of a blackhole
The way she held herself claimed, i was here to devour you
The shuffling echos in the hallway said the samething, but now it was gravel
grinding in their throat
The phone still rang with various themes, but they all seemed the same
The Sun in the east still burned, but I now felt the pain
Laughter at every level used to cloak it all, but now hollow and empty
The truth at the bottom use to stand very tall, But it was now just the
same
The eyes that used to proclaim, called back at my source again
So who was I to say, that life was going to end my way
Who was I to think that, that life was my treat
So again I resign, for this nature was my design
And the stars have shone truly, that I am what I will be
Fallen again, and I was afraid I might continue to decend
But weird it all becomes to find the ending and beginning the same
All captured in a name.
There was nothing different about the day it quit being funny, just subtle
hints that somehow....
Things have changed
