Cave to the final kingdom.



The tunnel of rocks lowered and thinned around me struggling and selfish crushed life calling from every side.
Cutting and scratching its diamonds pinching my fingers as I moved towards its crumbling exit of light.
My feet collapsing over again on its brilliant angulance and ambiance emmiting heavy blows to my ribcage as I swung across ledge after ledge of falling stars.
Until finally my hand emerged atop the cave opening to the new world, the final world, the final kingdom.
Whisper on whisper getting louder and more vivid announcing my arrival as I pulled my tired body out of the endless pit.
