I want to be there when the world ends
To be trapped on the boat of humanity
Falling slowly prey to the ocean’s jaws
I want to feel powerless, to feel
Pushed from behind by some inevitable force
That I have no possible way of stopping
I want to look to my left and to my right
And see all of humanity,
Sardined and trapped along with me
It seems that would be the least kind of lonely
To be served the same fate as absolutely everyone
And knowing no one is out there better off than you
I long for responsibility to be taken from my hands
To be handed decisions instead of left to figure out how
To make wise decisions, or to forsake wisdom
Adulthood is overwhelmingly lonely
You are no one longer attached to anyone,
Parents, friends
I just feel so alone
So responsible
So scared
