Musings Vol. 16

Feeling free inside a cage full of birds

I yearn for the sun that sheltered me from darkness

Opening the box that hid my destruction

My pleas for help are growing louder to no avail

Solitude is my confinement

I wear these shackles of hope freely

This mind made of matter grows ever stale

Lost in the sea of your hopes

Surrounded by water that drowns me

Common is this faith of perseverance

Behold these fears of self destruction

What do you find in this state of mind?

What answers do you seek?

Behold these fears of self destruction

Pride confines you

Fear confines you

Hatred releases you

I control this feeling on a whim

Spiraling in this void

Ever consuming in its hunger

Fears tossed aside to jump in

Cast away these emotions

Cast away all fear

Do not pull back

Do not hesitate

Release your inner demons

Let go of all of that you hold inside

All that could have been

All that ever was

Memories abide your rules of emotion

Constantly avoiding

Faced with a wandering eye

This point of view is askew

This line of sight is at an angle

Solitary is the soul that does not abide emotions

Constant is this feeling

I dwell in it

It lingers ever so slightly at the edge of my mind
