This Tower

I used to climb those same vines

of darkness and depth,

but then I reached the top and

hell couldn’t pull me down anymore.

I stared down at the world,

from my tower of recovery I

could see the struggle,

the crippling of mankind.

I tried to pull you up the wall,

scratched my bare hands,

but you fucking fell back down

and left me here alone.

Now I sit in this tower,

although now it is a trap

and I cannot get back

down the wall.
