Description
Something has taken over me.
My body, my soul, my being, is no longer mine
but of another force, capable to bind or break us all.
Sadness consumes my
thinking, logic, and reason.
Like a stone thrown into the water, my mind ripples endlessly
with unbidden emotions, distorting my reflection.
I only see what it wants me to see, feels what it wants me to feel.
Nothing more, nothing less.
There is nowhere that I can run, not a place I can hide,
nothing I can say or do to get through.
I am a prisoner, I am a slave, I am nothing
but a wandering and wearing traveler seeking the treasures
that were niever hidden.
Looking up I see that the clouds have long-ago enveloped
the stars that I once gazed upon without a thought, a care, or a feeling
that things could become so dark.
But every step you take closer to me
it becomes more and more clear.
I see in your eyes what I know others will never see,
no one else will ever feel, nothing that anyone else can ever be.
Underneath the world of decadence, I find the beauty in this dissonance.
