The Point of Know Return

I am the hunter, hunted, hunting
hidden beneath an array of shadows
dying to shoot through the system
and show the world a dream come true
I am the writer, lost for words
choking on the present, choking on the past
hanging barley on threads of humanity
pumping letters through veins;
side by side, black ink racing crimson blood
exit wounds; a language to myself
I am the philosopher, eyes on the stars
questioning life, fields of isolation
face to face and under pressure
exploding subtly beneath the sun
I am the missionary of lost memories
filling the minds of the musically deprived
keeping faith in the forgotten and pushed aside
I am the glutton, hungry for knowledge
bleeding contentment and a will to live
I am the wanderer, tired of reality
nearing the end
yet I am still the climax
and I am still the fork in the road
but I am still n
