Man Can Fly

 Wrestling with yourself

 Fighting who you should be

Indecisive on the course of reality

In a dream world you live

Struggling to exist

Nothing is making any sense

In the world you now subsist

In your mind somewhere lost

Trapped in a demented sphere

Crying out for help but

No one hears

Listening to voices that

 Are not there

Only in your mind do you hear

Whispers’ telling you lies

That man can fly

Going through a transformation

On a spiritual journey

Opening your mind to

Unknown entities as your

 Mentality is rocked with

 More confusion

Disillusioned to what is real

And you are asking yourself

Will I ever heal?

In the abyss you call home

Praying for the norm to

Return to your life

The whispers continue

To overpower your thinking

Voices becoming louder

Mingling with tears

You cry from frustration and pain

Relief will not come

As they tell you

Man can fly come join us

 

 

 

 

 

 

Longing

I hear the longing in your voice

The wistful way memories navigate from

Your lips

In hopes to resurrect some emotion

That is now long dead

Penitent actions originated too late

Apologies you don’t think you owe

Or are deserved

Atonement for causing cataclysmic destruction

You give with a shrug to you it was

No harm no fowl

All is forgiven in your one-sided lie

All reminiscences buried in the sea of tears

Every reflection is shatter with a stone

You reach out your hand

I only stare

Now you want to be my shelter

Too late the storms came tore my world down

In the aftermath I was left still standing

The longing you hear in my voice

Is only for you to vanish just as the fog rolls

Back out to sea and evaporates

In Limbo

There is no simple yes or maybe

Black or white slight shades of grey

The defining line between today and tomorrow

Reality unravels

Hope becomes a figment of the imagination

Ambiguity lingers in the air

Out of your grasp slips fragile possibilities

From eyes tears rally to fight a battle lost

In the end decisions still remain unclear

Leaving you suspended in limbo
