Don Mann: Focusing on my Craft Sunday, Nov. 09, 2003 - 3:28 a.m. I smile now Because the curse could finally be lifted I can be free now This is the passing of the clouds which have always drifted Over my precious sun ~~ I'm floating in a dream Because I feel like no one I've loved has ever died I give an extatic scream Because I feel like I've never let fall the tears I've cried My battle's finally won ~~ Wait, what am I doing here I'm drunk and all alone in my shoddy basement again The sky darkens, overwhelming fear I hate myself and cannot find comfort in my friends I disregard all I've done ~~ Don't let me hurt you I couldn't possibly take that mark on my soul Please give me good deeds to do Give me a purpose and a cause to make me whole Blind me from my issues with blissful fun ~~ I ramble now. The tears come much easier when I think of the past, and they freeze on my cheeks as I think to what may lie beyond, in my future. I still believe in love. I know it must be out there, sitting alone now just like me, waiting to be discovered, waiting for that moment when life's worn and filthy path through darkness becomes a golden road to happiness and enlightenment. Is there yet a forlorn soul, an emptiness out there waiting for me to fill it? I open myself now, I will clear my senses, I will fill my lungs with fresh air, and cry out to the winds. I will prepare myself for that day, and I will continue my search. The bird's wings have been broken, time their only splint. I wil leap off of the first cliff I find and close my eyes...and wait for the winds to carry me to the freedom of the skies. |
