Today,
I stay and reflect.
Like the mirrors floating on a pond, wandering in focus.
At times I am hopeless, distraught, and dazed, pondering.
I'll stop you there, you sad, beaten man.
Do you feel the seas trod upon you, drown you and let you swim further, and further just to regret, forget why you even began?
The shining at the deepest depths is merely a mirror to self-reflect,
to pay respects to what you wish you were.
Did you forget why you're here? Because, in truth, I never forget what I never knew,
why the sky feels the need to fall in disrespect, all upon your war-torn shoulders,
buckling under that very sigh you set free when you realized you're the traitor here, as you just get colder.
varied sighs sing you lies of peace,
poor Icarus, he tried to fly, to plead the sun, to chase infinity.
Do you truly seek peace? You try to run yet create your own inevitabilities, seized by your own dreams. With these ****** knees you've built yourself. Scorned by warnings of your self fulfilling prophecies.
You said so yourself.
First,
find what you need,
then perhaps your ever elusive peace may come,
and bring you to your knees,
to drown in seas of relief.
The war is not over,
Just another day.
