Suffering is not in vain, yet human hands, you prevent me…
““Suffering is not in vain, yet human hands, you prevent me from reaching heights unknown to man. Red knuckled and angry, I punch both fists through clouds reaching heaven. I stumble, only a short distance, as my temporal lobes birth supernovas. When I stand my back straight, massive holes adorn the sky, all that had been hidden, now in sight. My eyes, were wide open, shut.””
