In Stages

exchanging emotions

erasing the lines

from the constant commotion

ravaging in my mind

peeling away all my senses

holding me in its snare

knocking down my defenses

leaving me unaware

of the damage I cradle

nurturing the enemy

building it up, making it able

supplying the war raging inside me

as I close my eyes

letting everything go

surrender to the quiet

relinquishing all control

feel the rush of the silence

the complete ease of peace

sitting here in my presence

till all the confusion is ceased

tranquility taking over

peacefulness is in charge

we embrace like lost lovers

when I need to recharge
