The mind sees what the eyes refuse to see The road to hell is paved with well behaved slaves Constructing staves to save my mind

In the face of trials, in the darkest night, The human spirit finds its light. A power deep, a force unknown, That rises up when left alone.

There’s a voice within, a quiet guide, Soft and still, where truths reside. Yet, too often, we cannot hear, Drowned by others' voices, doubt and fear.
Fear stands like a shadow deep in the night, A whispering voice that dims your light, It creeps through the cracks of a hopeful heart,
You cannot see the road ahead, The path that waits, unknown, unsaid, The dots will only make their shape When time has passed, and fate’s escape
Was it Summer or Indian Summer? Doesn't really matter. The weather was steamy and hot. As a small child, the woman's demographics were unknown to me.

Float, float, float your boat, quietly down the stream, Carefully, carefully, carefully we don't want to sink! Deep, dark, stark is the vicious undertow

Adorned by the atrocity, bemoaned by the call In the dire stance of existence, the elusiveness of stillness in its mirth had its stall.

You’re my hedonism Your kisses have saved me From my isthmus of sorrow You indulge my whims And I hang on your words Forever tied together
I used to imagine your face I used to look for you in every place I used to wonder what you were doing But then I realized it was all a waste
The kettle sat Long forgotten On the stove, Grime sitting on Once beautiful chrome, A lone scream Echoing down empty hall

Where am I? Still half-asleep, I fumble, My fingers searching for the snooze, For the silence, for the peace. But wait—what is this light?
