Destination Unknown

City lights twinkling in the backgroundRain pours down all around me I walk barefoot through these streetsThe honking of vehicles seems like blasphemy
My ears seem to have shut out the mad world's dinI allow the raindrops to pour down on my faceMixing with the teardrops clinging on my eyelashes My wet clothes sticking onto me like a second skin
My feet have started bleeding Have I stepped on a shard of broken glass?Why then is it that I can't feel the pain The pain that I so desperately crave?
My heart beats like a caged bird in my rib case A dull ache spreading all over my body From my fingertips right down to my toesIt feels impossible to move forward, yet I must
I keep walking into the darkness of the nightNot knowing the destination One foot after the other, step by stepThat's all that I can muster for now
