My body aches, my mind is tired,
soul is numb, and heart retired.
Unaware,
unrecognized,
that hint of sadness in my eyes.
Beautiful faces,
shallow thoughts,
so out of place,
and I forgot,
what I’m doing here, and who I am,
where am I going and for what do I stand?
How are you supposed to make sense of this world?
When reality changes daily
a sense of meaninglessness unfurled,
revelations and distractions … what provokes me mainly…
is the blood that’s lost,
the chaos that ensues…
When what you can afford is much less than the cost
of tears shed over unsolvable issues.
And now a static sadness hits me.
And radiates from the hole in the bottom of my heart.
And now the silence surrounds me,
engulfs me,
and takes me on a journey back to the start…
Blood red and violet green,
the sky’s on fire, and the ocean is tame,
waters are sleeping, and trees are weeping,
at the nature of what can never be explained.
So here I am,
once again,
on the horizon barley reaching the light.
Enrich me.
Indulge me.
Know me.
Lead me, help me, and teach me.
I desperately long for someone to understand me.
Breathe in the soft crisp air and help me to see.
That soul-sustaining truth that keeps me sane.
In this world filled with contempt, confusion, and pain.
The love I cling to, the light buried within dark
Wisdom is an igniter,
but inspiration is the spark.
I just need my spark.
Keep me sacred, know my mind,
embrace my demons, my flaws and help me to find…
something that won’t erode with each passing season.
A whisper of hope … an infallible reason.
Please…
Bring me back home.
Show me the truth, help me to see.
Please, I’m so lost in myself…
Save me.
