One Last Stand

Surrounded by shroud of haze
One can't see both ways
What's in mind cannot be felt
What I feel cannot be conveyed
What can be conveyed cannot be acted on
A spiral sucking me into its vortex

Coming undone is easy
Staying whole a different ball game
To make a blind leap requires faith
Belief isn't easy to come by though
Auto tuned to desecrate
Heart is frivolous, needs to be tamed

Mind over matter
Light over darkness
Love over indifference
Stoic in the face of misery
Blossoms over the gloom of winter
Soul knows what it wants, but knowing isn't living

Here I sit and let the time go by
A stream of memories never made
Remembrances like dreams they come
Vivid and abstract at the same time
I can feel the emotions yet the specifics elude me
Wish to be done with stronger than ever

Harp on all the goodness
The vile me lies hidden
Waiting to catch me off guard
Looking to square it off
Yet I stand brave and tall
Ready for one last stand

He saw a prayer once.


He saw a prayer once
She was pretty and innocent still
An ode to gods and their creation
A garland of wishes, a bouquet of devotion
Hopes for bounty, affirmation to beliefs. 
Serenity of acceptance, certainty of fate
Heart ripe with emotions, soul that is content. 


She saw him too and accepted his gratitude.

Shall We


Shall we shall we
Play the game shall we
I play dumb you play mute
Both play blind and both play crude

I saw your web
I saw you tease
I saw you try hard to please
I heard you laugh
I heard you cry
Till those damn tears turned dry

In the lair so deep
Rotting away in sleep
Endless ego senseless mind
Breathless body in a bind
Battered and bruised by daily grind 

Wake up wake up
Sun is up and stars are lost
Dreamers are done cutting cost
In the offing is something new
Known only to a select few

Treasure hunter and storm chasers
All gather to build a phaser
Target locked destruction decided
People of power won't be chided
No one fight was ever one sided

Delusion

Delusion is important. Without Delusion there is no greatness. Think of any visionary, were they not called delusional? Love is delusion but without love nothing is possible. Faith is delusion, belief is delusion, the world we live in, the world we crave for, all delusions.
We can't do without it, we are all delusional.
