knowing nothing much but my name 
My being has not been the same

She said I can never leave him; 
though, where does that leave me? 
Unable to fulfill my own dreams and desires; 
verily, I will wilt and grow old young. 
But I lost my youth long before I even became one.

Cold feet, cold floors - 
creep and crack around closed doors - 
behind which lie our dreams divine - 
if we would only take the time - 
to see the line -

which intertwines unlike minds, 
into a frenzy of blind leading the blind.

dancing across the peripheral plains,
seeing it's all unparalleled, by design,

there's no notifications of little green,
nor grey, men obtaining solar solace

yet we keep creating rockets powerful
enough for spacing out, just pacing...

As the dashing passion heaves back and forth
Confound with transitory absurdities mocking them with ease,
So do our light dwindles to naught orchestrated by time then I sigh
A groan of life devoid of spirituality a sombre spectacle of material chase.

Therefore the morrow is naught 
So why then must we give thought 
to the preachers who say we ought?

before it falls and loses its glee 
Moan not that you have nothing to eat 
for what once was ripe rots at your feet
