My Loml

Lying in the dark, trapped inside an imprisoned mind

 

Vying for a spark, a whole new light of a different kind

 

The painted air looms, a dusty cloud of putrid shared despair leaves us blind

 

A tainted glare glooms, a toxic proud gas that just doesn’t care about a rare find

 

Tons of ***** in a *** an epidemic of a tired, rotten town

 

Dire schemes are sought, to Truman’s show we are bound

 

Genetic labs thicken the plot, designed to keep us all down

 

But seedling dreams of thought, alas flutter to the ground

 

So I ****** the seed, and bury my fist deep within the ready soil

The sun shall feed and I’ll nurture any need, this idea won’t spoil

Tirelessly until I bleed, I won’t sleep, the truth lies within the toil

My fateful flower freed, from the weeds, too futile to ever foil

 

Oh Lord please let this seedling sprout and  forever grow

Grant me the opportunity to be devout in love and show

My Poured tears supplanting drought, with the joys I’ll know

Plant my queen without a shadow of a doubt, from below

 

Exhausted I leapt into the shade, end of day, no more debts to pay

I kneeled and wept, began to fade, and in a daze started to pray

The moon crept in as the sun strayed away to once again obey

And there I slept, all night I stayed, until I woke to skies so gray

 

A storm was brewing, but I knew exactly why

I had an immaculate dream, that made heaven cry

And as I lay in the mud, lightning lit up the sky

And I saw the purest beauty to ever grace an eye

 

The most angelic being, from the hopeful seed I had planted

The all knowing, all seeing, dope fill of everything enchanted

Inseparable yet somehow freeing, a slippery slope so slanted

Debate about disagreeing, nope, I’ll never take her for granted

 

She is the antithesis of loneliness

Sheer absolute bliss when we kiss

A metamorphosis with a love like this

As I reminisce searching among the abyss

 

She lights me up like glow worms in a cave

I feel funny for a while, like a perfect wave

A hobbit’s drunken smile, ring fueled slave

Perfect waterfall hike, so much life to crave

 

I’ve wandered through the dense fog alone

Stuck in a constant, stagnant roaming zone    

To find the cure for restless soul syndrome

Is no matter where we go I’m always home
