Evanescent

by @iliveinyourhead

Enraptured in a fevered spasm, Captured in the mind's phantasm, Swimming through the ectoplasm, Pouring from the roaring chasm, Hidden in the soul's recess A subtle, gentle, warm caress So jubilant, it   doth redress, The hindrances which so suppress, The progress of the spirit's wellness, Showing things which words can't tell us, Giving gifts, which none can sell us, Do you hear the bell that's ringing?                    ringing               from a                            distant                                         shore? It resonates from mammoth spheres, In orbit, shedding countless years, Through aeons of causality, And boundless temporality We see how worlds arise and cease, We see how yearning lays the fleece, The wool over the eyes, deceiving, cool Dispassion's peace relieving, our Great webs of pain and sorrow, Darkening, to light the morrow For as all things must come apart, So suffering's, great work of art, is merely but a transience, receding slowly in the dark.
