Untitled
Timeless, that place
which defines our space
which harbors and holds all beings
----------------------------------------------------------
Under the grey
a clanking machinery
turning hums to song
and life to be
just some odd, finite reason
we've lost that Golden Age
dipped in that serenity
the race has always been passion
or just listless existence
----------------------------------------
All we want to know
is if the needs are still there
carnivorous cravings
seven billion strong
and expanse so infinite
even light seems less than what it does
------------------------------------------------------------
So I sit in those moonlight dances
under darkened fires
and crimson sparks, lingering smoke
all those ever so consuming drugs
just trying to meet ends
across burned bridges
and these apathy days
wishing, just once
that inertness tries motion
and the clanking shall continue
so it's at least something
that doesn't spit shine the dirt
polish the stars
----------------------------------------------------------
We have always been destined to lose it all
beyond the flickers
which empty the mind
and all these apologies
slowly catching up with me
so that they drain like ink
which, like everything else
fades in time
--------------------------------------------
Freedom is as much as you can own
and life is only as much as you remember
these days are gone
faster than they've been brought
faith is just a luxury I can't afford
and even if it happened
I'd still wish I was bored
