I Find Myself

by @it

I find myself repeating the verses, the tones of hope, and embodiments of kindness; the surreality of freedom, and reverence. I find myself, hoping to go back; though I regret not my growth nor bending wakes which have aroused upon the grieving dismissal of the elements I cursed over the sake of the intellect. I rewind, reform, and inform myself; “these biddings are none but illusions, ignorance, bewildered by a tragic coat of happiness”, yet that blinding world was much more comforting that my currents misconceptions - the real ones, which I have never succeeded to eradicate: the demons. Were I in the guiding of a celestial mentor, would it make a difference? Or would this guardian unveil me as I proudly did so myself? I do not wish for a tone, I do not wish for a course, I do not wish to the frightening of my curse; nor a god. Yet, in these precious and tumbling days, I find myself praying. I pray for nothing other than the essence that left along with these figures. The child I abandoned in my search for reason. I find myself reciting words I never could have captured, and actions I never would have wished to perform. But it is not the words nor actions which engrave our being - it is our soul. Mine is hidden. Conceptual yet senseless. I find myself singing the words which used to fill the ambience with glow and truth. But nothing comes of it, other than my need to recapture my previous being, while tangling on to my current presence and gladfull knowledge. Though sadness is cause, I pay no heed towards commotion, **for I find myself finding a reason.**
