Darkness envelops the mind Shrouded in the ever present knowing of nothing Hoping for a dramatic climax The realization that I am a spec of dust in the cosmic gathering Dancing in and out of lucidness The hardened heart of tomorrow has me in a strangle hold Questions leaving unanswered Answers appearing with no rhyme or reason The leaves change, yet do I Walking on an invisible tight rope Aimless and pointless direction Is there possibilities in the yesteryear Or is hindsight blind as well Gathering moss in a timely way Love garnishes this being Yet does not fulfill it The waking solitude that is Shrieking harpies placate the very essence Cause and effect is nothing with out purpose Reading words, yet they slip from ear to ear You will awake no different A lie in a glass house Smiling for reasons you can not comprehend The beliefs of the many are your own A sullen child you will remain Till you forget you were even there A cold hard truth that is death Tomorrow comes for those who fear it. Today never ends for those who live it. |

Poe, even though this ends on a chilly note? I enjoyed the warm heartbeat that flows within this piece. |
