Elevator

Why did I do it?
I think I moved too fast or not fast enough
     Thoughts entrap me, yet
  Thoughts escape me
     Drastic measures end in drastic results
 
  Why did I do it?
I had to try, to believe the fantasy was real
      Ambitious dreams, and the world limited by rules
   It feels raw      and desperate
     I didn�t want thiat
 
  Why did I do it?
I had to find out what the truth was
      Whether it was you or me
   Yet I went on that elevator 
     I did it again.

  Why did I do it?
I let the fear contain me.
      So tiring to rhyme and riddle about
   Revolting anxiety driving me into
     Nothing.

  Why did I do it?
I had to find out what the truth was
      I had to find closure much like
   The closing of those pale blue doors
     Behind me      like with no voice
               like with no choice
   They closed...

  Why did I do it?
                 
I then decided for no more fear
      I walked out the door to hit the floor.
