I think, therefore I confuse.
Recalling a simpler time,
how I wish I could regain
those days of innocence in rhyme.
Long ago lost my focus, my burn,
I struggle almost daily,
for a minute's return.
Browsing, looking, searching
for meaning, for purpose alike.
I contrive ridiculous plans,
which disappear in the night.
Risking all or nothing, I'm caught
material versus spiritual I choose thought.
Accomplishing little, though thinking a lot.
Yearning, burning for a simple moment of clarity,
It's reason and logic that inhibit me.
Reactions to actions still misunderstood,
I would explain, even enlighten if only I could.
Answers elude me,
my questions long f
Unyielding universal laws
bring immanent truth.
Beyond the void of life
darkness or light?
The fear of a lifetime
of questions unanswered, unrealized.
Regret, sorrow follow closely behind.
What ifs and maybes fill the mind
and encompass all thoughts.
An old man weeps.
Peace in futility.
A quick prayer just in case,
Yet unfinished.
The final sigh.
I am who I am
so let me be.
I don't care who you want
I live for me.
How long will it take
for us to break
this stupid charade
my mind has always been made
one month, two months, maybe three
it makes no difference,
it's all the same to me.
This life that you live
is but yours to give.
Don't waste it on me,
for I have no intentions with thee.
Begone sweet demons,
we've come a long way.
I turn from you now,
t'morrow's a new day.
Requiring action
I refuse to take.
Leave me forever,
I'm now awake.
An open road ahead,
obstacles? many I see.
be it lies or delusion,
at least now I'm free!
