Allegory [Architectural Thesis]

After walking in it for a time
I encounter something strange sitting in the line
A form unique to break the linear
But there was something about it that looked familiar
Because the other side of them was overly worn
Still, it gave something that was totally pure
Balancing both through harmony
Just to look left and see me standing at the pharmacy
As I got close, I saw the sloped hills
Perfect and monochrome it gave me cold chills
Thinking this is just a form of ideals
Without consideration for how that side feels
Standing underneath the canopy
I couldn’t help but look over and be mad at me
Because I was playing into how they wanted me
Scared of my surroundings and paranoid constantly
It wasn’t till I took a step I realised
The path had been walked on a hundred times
Getting to the top I finally look behind
Thinking this is how we’re seeing things in real lives
Yet as I banged on the wall
Trying to get my own attention I was feeling unsure
And sure enough it affected my sight
As windows became bright and left me totally blind
ONLY TO LOOK LEFT and be in disbelief
Nothing prepared me for what I could have seen
A one-way mirror I was seeing me
About to kick down a tower block to set me free
I see another place as I opened my eyes
Central Hill’s staircase but I wasn’t surprised
Just like the others it was cleanly designed
Without an imperfection to a step on its rise
Banging on the wall I couldn’t hear me scream
Trying to get my own attention just to make me see
Everything that I was doing only helped the cause
Of those trying to rip the block apart with no remorse
But the footers of the staircase where broken and frayed
So, I sat at their peak and just admired their ways
Looking up towards the sky and just admiring the rays
Till a darkness on my left overpowered my gaze
As the tower fell - I shut my eyes
Opening them wide to see the rest of the line
Just to turn around and see the walkways
But it was clear that I wasn’t in Central Hill this time
It was darkness from the underpass that I could see
Overwhelming every source of light surrounding me
But over in the distance I could see myself
Navigating through a space where I was overwhelmed
Walking down the path made in perfect form
Felt crazy like something I was seeing before
From indentations to the slope in the floor
Till I got to the end and then I weren’t so sure
Knowing what was coming I just tried to help
Breaking down the wall so light could flood it out
But as I took my first swing to breaking down the glass
Everything around me started to collapse
