Mirage

Pieces will never tell the whole story Crushing the unbreakable glass Heat escaping through the unknowable reflection An unseen pattern in fragments inside the golden room To be born in a world of cosmic misrule Raised outside of the natural order The bleakest tragedy of human errors The unbodied puppet show Glassy shades pulled against the sun Hiding the light from the fool′s sight Whispers cutting the surfacе unremarked Slickly sliding along faulty and clumsy lines What arе you looking for? Leaving broken bones behind Upon the treacherous murder Witchery accursing the past Nothing but gloom in the horizon Filled with contractions of fate Stuck in this restless walk Life's but a walking shadow Ticking my steps for nothing Searching between worlds To embrace the voices encircling my head Feeling engulfed by the scars of emptiness Overcoming the fearful anxiety Delivering a despairing monologue A desolated crossroad between awakening and death Murdering nightmares upon thy survival Surrounded by the unknown And overwhelmed with shame An infinite land filled with sorrow The lap of a luxury season That used to be called our soul

Birth opens the gate of death Between the sentence lies the path of life Traveled by all sentient beings All are born All will die The unnameable state determined by illness Stockpile of gathered karmas We must pass through this enviable state Feeling that something is oddly off In extremis believers Surreal poetic flaw Terrifying, fascinating, magnificent mystery Everything achieved ten thousand years ago Dictated on a snuff tape with a conflicting end Impenetrable, forbidden vest of lies The sounds and smells that made me forget A cheap solution to block our regrets Sailing alone the frozen rivers Surrounded by legions of souls But yet all alone Trapped within thiis solitude world Haunted by memories of foretime Running miles with nowhere to go A meaningless life, a Broadway show Screaming for help, Does anyone hear? Echoes in our heads, What does serenity mean? Hope is an illusion, an optimist′s prediction

A sulfurous choir Enthroned in the realms of light A self-deceiving entity of undenying praise Freedom gets him anxious Suffocating Isolation To the staring eyes behind the glass A defaced figure lies upon them To the already replaced one Here's the peace of mind you'll never find Ripped into a neon light As if the mirror reflects his skull Staring back at him with its sardonic smile Carnation lead by the flute of temperament Total blackness among the pessimists Blueish waters of past memories Running through his refulgent arms The mortals behind the wall Hastening every step Watching his bones crack To see how long he lasts He is of contemplation The ultimate specimen of time Growing desolation had come Stripping the flesh, salting the wound Nothing in life shall be granted In the sharpest nails, I've been consumed I am hunger, the desperate A living lie, a contradiction The fool's gold The indulging taste of rust The conquering of nature's triumph A caustic distraction in misery A tragic moan of logic All he ever dreamt, all he ever lost Acid rain crying in wide open flesh Forgiveness is a never-ending flood He lays down and wonder why he is here Tranquility tinged with terror Perfectionist act in vanity Between sorrow and paradox The light ceases to shine
