Is this Hell?
To know, to believe
That I am going to Heaven
But to be stuck on the journey?
Stuck with Charon and the other
Miserables in a constant ride.
Seeing life pass by,
But not stopping to live it.
Becoming slowly insane
With none to medicate.

I wrote this waiting in an airport. And yes, airports are hell. It's great knowing I'm going somewhere far away, but waiting to get there sucks.
