Hidden Mental Side
December 03, 2023
___________________________________________
Dissipating drowsiness
In the elmwood of the mind
Eras and realities collide
Having body crawl
In the gloomiest of night hazy drizzle.
Dullness seeps in
Across increasing veins
As faraway as the sunshine
Switches to a slower pace
Laughter from a bygone era
Cuts and scrapes
Leaving me breathless.
The resolve is unwavering
And sustains the ultimate breath
Every day in bitter shadows
In pursuit of Eden insight
My cornea has been burned.
