Pushed into the deep
Thrown to wolves rearing teeth
Swim or fight, sink or flee
Growth wont wait until we're ready
The right time is sometimes the wrong time
We may encounter what we're not yet wise enough to understand
that is exactly what will show us how
You'll need to get lost to find your way
Order is unattainable without chaos
You dont know now but you will
More has to happen before it becomes clear
The view from the bottom of the mountain is very different from the peak
Look back at where you were, how far you came, and you might see
Life has a way of always giving us exactly what we need.

Time to ****

Painful
Prideful
Half empty fool
His cups full, over flows
And spills
A mess made, price paid
With a clenching fist full of pills
Shameful
Pitiful
Half empty individual
His cups dry, dead eyes
Staring still
A breath fades, life frays
A corpse has only time to ****

Temporary Identity

Pulled particles
Distorted skin pixilates
A mist of flesh
Torn on the anatomical plain
The gravitational pull of the event horizon
Removes the spirits sword from the physical sheath
Unencumbered by the heaviness of the body
All that may pass are what remains
Just waves of consciousness
The darkness of the void only welcomes the unafraid
No fear of material death
Understand there is no end
This dimension is unforgiving
Yet provides without limits
Energy is incessant in the recycling of its self
Don't let the gift of perception become your curse
What we believe as truth is a testament to the individuals utilization of conviction
Your disposition is a filter for the blackness
Those who cling desperately to their own humanity will feel nothing but the stripping of what they mistaken as existence
Beings prepared to ascend will feel bliss as the true reality of the void is revealed to them
The realm of a higher dimension can only be seen as empty to those on lower frequencies
Where we are going identity has no home
All that surrounds you are variations
Boundless examples of yourself
Let go and relinquish your delusions of control
Or be consumed by vermin
Disintegrate into the soil pieced and quartered
No level of prevention will avoid the inevitable
Your human costume belongs to the worms
Only the soul can walk the bridge to all there is to learn

Starve the Flame

The problem is, nothing is inherently positive or negative. Without our perception neither would exist at all. Its our view of the world that makes it what it is. You have the power and you're giving it away by allowing your external reality to influence internal disorder. Take control of your thoughts and emotions, or fall ill just as the sickness intends. Hurt bleeds like the flames of a wildfire, spreading with the breath of the wind keeping them alive. Don't get caught in the embers of other peoples battles, or fall to ash just the same. You're feeding the blaze with energy, make the change and step away. Taking yourself out of the equation is the only way to starve the flame.

I Forget Your Face

It used to be so clear
I saw it everyday
That freckled face
I knew it very well
That crease in your forehead
When your smile raised your eye brows
I knew every detail
Like the painting in the hallway
Hung in wait for my every morning passing
I studied it as I brushed my teeth
Got lost in it every sun rise
My hand glides along the landscape of your hips
Studying you like each brush stroke
Made with the attention of an artist
The scars you got as a kid
I knew all the stories behind them
Youve become a familiar stranger
Our lives once unraveled together
I don't know you anymore
Once my world, now a chapter
I see your expression for a second
Then it begins to fade and scatter
Im starting to forget your face
And the echo of your laughter

Somewhere Along the Way

To search with hope to regain
The seeking soul doesn't recognize
These vacant eyes peering back
From the distortions of lifes rippling waves
We must have dropped it somewhere
The pendant of our identity
Lost in the blur of the passing road
We lost ourselves somewhere along the way
We retrace our steps
Trying to recount the exact moment
We strayed from the safety of the course
The fork we faced
Forced a choice to be made
One of great importance
One we weren't ready to make
Little clue that our decisions
Would be life changing
We decided without considering
The obstacles we'd be facing
Though any choice is better than none
We still could have given this more thought
Any action is better than stagnation
But we rushed our development
And in our haste we forgot what was most important
We lost our reason, our purpose
Somewhere along the way

Cºsmịc Iŋtɛnŧ

The manifestation of matter is divinities cosmic intent
Our Universe is efficient in its means to cultivate life forms
Harnessed by consciousness, and fixed within an organic vessel
Each peculiar anatomical organism has an individual perception, and from a distinct focal point
We experience life subjectively.
