A small request, a little dream
ecstasy denied, a hollow scream
Mistakes abound, foolish pride
the bird is dead, a child cried
Ripples in the water, a lake on fire
reflections disappear, stuck in a mire
One down-step, turns into a freefall
walls crumble, never felt so small
Nights are dark, the days darker
words are dead, scribbled with a marker
Asked for heaven, got hell
Asked for life, got death's knell
