Reflecting...

Reflecting...

I'm not immortal in thought, fragile glass makes up most of my choices

Delusion filled with intrusion guide even daydreams to wander among unknown voices

I've been in a stagger lately since my footing fell short of worthwhile

The limp goes well with my half-hearted smile

Defending the downward slope is hard, a struggle to simply try

The other end of the bend is peaceful, theirs a wanting I have I don't bother to longer deny

Friends seem to puppet their way around

The face the same, their voice no longer has sound

I can't be that, the empty shell they seem to enjoy

They gave up humanity, filled themselves with insanity, & became another play thing...just a social toy...

The shadows gather substance where they once stood

The streets empty of familiar people, it leaves me with feelings anything but good

Heading blind into tomorrow with no want for another expectable conclusion

I want the cob webs to burn again, the ground to shake with intrusion

Even if it's just in my head

I'd rather roam the realms intertwined instead

My addiction worth quoting if your only taking in life's good moments repetitively, always aware

I seem to dream only in a scene where shadows stare

It's nice for the price, only giving time to the thought

It's refreshing, not long lasting, but it hits the spot...

I wish their were more to share

I just can't seem to find others similar, who, in this way, even care

The journey ending only when the mountain crumbles, & begins to fall

For what it's worth, to stay at the top, that feeling, leaning toward the drop, I'd give it all...

I'm not reckless, just aware of what's being lost

Making my peace, the motions are in ease, I'll pay the cost...

If you even wander my way, lets match footing, side by side, into the unknown

Happy, if anything to what we've always shown...
