End of All Emotion: Crash

whens it all going to come crashing down

in suspended animation

this still life picture of emotion

its in my bedroom

in my living room

i keep it in my wallet

i carry it around with me

for i can never put it down

though it weighs not upon me

like a caged tiger

but i know that the bars are in my head

does it know that though?

what holds it back

that allows me to observe

unscathed

but fearful

when the mind breaks down

the walls break down

the bars come down

the picture comes alive

and i am otherwise
