The imminent pains lie somewhere in the distance-
What pressure to face the unknown head on.
When you move forward all you feel is resistance-
Understand that the simple days have gone.

Waking up the morning after,
I can only recall the excessive laughter.
The great vibes shared in one moment in time,
It was all so beautiful, the highest of highs.
(****)
My glance embarrassingly detects
the frightful fact the mirror reflects.
A bathroom tagged with the night's mistakes,
Rorschach like markings of drinks and rare steaks.
Always said "Yes", lacking all inhibition.
I wish last night I lived its definition.
So I readjust my head and all of the fixtures,
and pray to god no one took any pictures.

I took a stroll in Central Park,
to take a break and think of things.
Thoughts colliding in the dark,
so full of doubt so full of dreams.

I saw the writing on the wall,
it said "Ignorance is not bliss".
The thought that scares me most of all,
is to think "What have I missed"?

My dreams elude my reach.
Do these illusions delude or lead?
A ruse or a path unseen?
With hidden meaning or does my soul randomly seek
from cognition's depth to spirit's peak
a time and space where I believe
that my world and life will be complete.

the transcognitive experience
a transformative deliriousness
makes your gibberish sound Shakespeareanesque.

Anchored spirit but his being's stretched
On to the next life is where he's racing to get
But his job is not finished and that is his test
All he knows he will soon forget
All of his actions he will soon regret
Exhausting his faculties, all he wants is rest
The drugs he loves leaves him depressed
Dejected
Rejected
Stretched too thin
But burn another down before sobriety sets in
Use it to unearth the beauty that's within
Discover and share to all who'll listen
Satisfaction
Passion
His work never finished
On to the next one or his name is diminished.

to be a passenger or drive the car.
to acting better or knowing you are .
to saying that love will open my heart.
to knowing that words will never take you as far.
Is it prudent to take a backseat role in life sometimes.
