Echo: I'll be waiting.

Echo: I'll be waiting.

A Poem by johnnyqueer

I'm becoming so detached,
Unafraid of my solitude.
I'm finally thinking clearly,
No fog to dilute honesty.
Words will be my downfall,
My truth brings discomfort.

My transformation is complete,
I can finally abort the cocoon.
My soul is drained and vacant,
The noise is finally gone.
Hands pound upon the vessel,
I warned them all I'd be gone.

I'll pretend that I'm lost,
Never to be found again.
I'll scream and pretend
To await the echo.
I'll fake my own protection,
And fear what isn't there.

I'll be here, awaiting you all.
I'll open my arms, much like Jesus.
I'll feed you the truth through
Prescriptions And allow you to
Skip doses, when the weight
Of the world overwhelms you.
