How much longer would I have to fight destiny's claws on my own life?
How much longer would I need to climb this ladder set out for me just to get a taste of heaven people with power promised?
How much longer would I grit my teeth against the discomfort the pain and the death I go through just for existing?
Have I enough lifetimes to even start to wonder? Have I enough dreams to last me an era of want until the wind blows my remnants away?
How much longer would I have to break my neck staring up at the cloudless glory just because I can't level my gaze back to myself?
How much longer would I shut my mouth and swallow all the things people don't want to hear from me for the first time?
How much longer would I need to live with the uncomfortable truths that have gripped my body after so long—tying me to a place I can't ever escape?
Have I enough words to tell you that I need to build myself up because this world has no place for broken people or because the world expects me to? Have I enough chance, time, and memory to live a life I will never be allowed to?
