Living a lie leads to luxury
Diamonds of deceit around my neck
Choking the truth out of me but it hasn’t come up yet
I look at what others have caused me
blame them for the circles I trot around
Why do I live in such a place
where I cannot be found
Land of the present
Land of the physical
I live in a dimension where I’m missing the spiritual
Or the emotion I look at the keys that I press
and I feel the ethereal
What am I feeling
I’m starting to discover
as Columbus charted new lands
that were already discovered
I jump into myself to find the other half
The side that I have longed for
The side that I also forsook and was gone for
I always ask myself what is it that I am
What is it that I feel
And a lot of times it’s hard for me to express or articulate
so I feel so much full of problems and scars
that I long to heal from
glass prison
bandages wrapped around my mind
I’ve been waiting for someone to come and peel
someone to come and open my mind’s eye
to see my Self in the mirror
so I can reveal who I’ve been
Not to them
Not to others
But to me
How could I have done the things that I’ve done
I slapped the cuffs on my wrist
and told my Self i should be shunned
but how could I see if I stand in the shadow of the sun
Where will I go
How will I be
If nothing in front of me represents the Love that i breathe
Steven, I feel as though we share similar Universes
Holding up a picture of our past self
Wanting to become that old version of past wealth
To the point we start to deny our current health
When you feel it you can’t force
When you force it you cant feel
It’s just like running forward but cutting your stride by striking your heel
Or striking your healing
I don’t know what I’ve been feeling
But I’ve been feeling “good” Something tells me to be wary of jinxing it
So I better knock on wood
I write in this form
Of staring at the keys
Just letting it flow so easily
as my fingers glide on the breeze
Not looking at the words
Not looking at what’s in front of me
Just flowing with the water of my motion
Emoting on my keys
