Another breaking point approaches
Can't keep building higher levees
Sooner or later, all will break
The flood of what you've been ignoring comes pouring
It's difficult to move when you're underwater

Wake up
This is your life
Your one and only life
Time is a heart beating
Time is your blood flowing

Talking to no one
The silence detaches me
What do I want
Why is this happening

While you still can
Breathe the air in deep
Move and be moved

Inspiration everywhere
Grateful for passion
Given up on searching
Looking inside everything I find
Wholeness and emptiness
Or something in between
Endless things
No beginning or end
Adrift in infinity
Follow me
Pretend to have answers
That is unnecessary
Solutions seek and destroy
All of your problems
Committing to the moment
Do not hesitate movement
Walk off all the frozen
Flesh is not stone
Introspection to progress
To be free
To be strong

How can I feel whole
Pull on my limbs
Bring it all in
Breathe in
Breathe out joy and acceptance
Let your mind and body see your mind and body
Let it all heal via reconnection and stretching

Boiling up, burning
Clenched jaw
Fed up
Itchy skin makes me want to rip in
Forever in, stuck
Try harder but no luck
It all becomes less
But I'm shrinking
And I'm a mess
Bones crack
Blood, nerves
Muscle and fat stack
Parade my afraid
Stop my hiding
The bright edges
And sharp lines
Cut my eyes
I can't stand idly by
So I go inside
I'm happy to be involved
But I am too strong
I am unwelcome
Too much sanctum
So where am I?
Gone, so this flesh can get on with it

Every imperfection is perfect
Let it go until it's different
Just do your best, it's worth it
Feel out to complete yourself
Nobody said life was an easy quest
Focus only on what's important
Please, try not to get distracted

Trying to hold on to what disappears
I am stretched out over many acres
The path set in front and behind
I remain curled up while I unwind
Time is a chase and I win the race
Slow and steady I'll hold the pace
I'll hold a thought for days
Forget everything in between when I'm in the haze
Forget everything that's not in the daze I'm in
I'd raise a bet to the prospect that I'll win
When it comes to life, it's best to be cautious and die slow
But damn, when it comes to holding on, I think I've got to let go
If I don't compress my consciousness to impress the present without hesitance
I'll be stuck running in circles between past and future dreaming of decadence
I forget, this is impermanence, the more I focus, the more I enjoy this
The more I escape this, the more I regret what exists
Constantly multitask, it being an impossibility I refuse to accept
My mind running around to here or there
And everything crumbles when views vanish
Nothing has reasons in a dream's chaos
I'm the tortoise hiding in his shell with haste
I'm the hare jumping from place to place

Innocent curiosity
Delicate precision
Natural animosity
A silent decision
Life as it pleases
No need for mazes

The scourge of humanity
A lack of purity
Resurgence of the arbitrary
Nature is the past and future
Reason is lost in the depths
Reaching into the abyss
We fall into ourselves
The limit of wrists
We can't grasp any more than this

Folding inside out
We will come around

Forgetting to blink
Scared to choke

Endless complex system
I'll fall into sync
I'll take my time to think

The joke
The joke
Cosmic relief
Ironic stink

Twisted machines
Evolution of things
Movement fades to darkness
We hold the in-betweens

Possibilities evade
Until you're inside

How deep is too deep into things?
If I go far enough
What will I see?
My own eye looking back at me

Tick-tock goes the clock
Cars pass and neighbors talk
We confine ourselves when it's dark
Afraid of what, of what may lurk
Ask why
Why so ununified
The city is a war
Without the battle
We would, we would
Be bored
Sweet sanity, a luxury we can't afford
So long as we think
It's something that is bought

In our sun's rays, you can see the dust rain
The sharp light pays, with a view of stain

--

We all yearn for a fulfilled essence
Please spark my heart effervescent
Awaken it and grace me with innocence
