Musings of a restless soul


A pulsating truth adorns my being...
the truth that breaks the tranquility of my soul...
the same truth that provides my soul with the spark to ignite...
yet the very truth that burns through my existence...

I look for answers as the questions haunt me,
and right then when the answers are within my reach,
the questions change.
is it the fragility of my being that
each fluttering feather disturbs the tranquility of my soul?

And with each ripple, i fight more questions,
I seek the answers yet hidden from me....
and for all the reasons I absorb,
deeper tragidies are born and
I lose yet again some more of that madness....

Madness that formed the essence of my existence,
now getting lost in the burdens of that very existence,
those that rupture my meditations
leaving a stark truth clearer than ever before that
there is no truth...

Silence


Trudging along with
Lead laden feet
The Heart yields.
A heavy sigh
The wind blows away
A tear glistens
A whisper stays.
Locked hands
Sealed lips
A prayer wills to escape
Overpowering dejection
Silence prevails.
Closed doors
Eyes tight shut
Darkness crawls in
No escape.
A glance down the road
Bated breath
Dusk sets in
No footsteps
The silence prevails.
The glistening drop falls
Loneliness is complete.
