DREAMS WITHOUT CLARITY





Falling rain peels my skull, my mind is drowning, my brain is too full



Anxiety stabs at me left and right, my soul shred to ribbons as I face the cold night



I'm alone and afraid, with no voices to hear, my eyes search out for you, but you aren't very near



Then evil springs before me in full view, and steals me far away from our baby and you



Where is the light, the love, the smile, or the sun on my face for even a while?



It's gone, it's gone, but where did it go? Somewhere in time or space, another dimension, I don't know



Gray skies above the sorrow below, as loved ones gather around a space in the snow



The glittering ice tingles my spine, the more that I search, the higher I climb



Up toward the light that I see and I fly, fading faster away until not seen by the eye



The tree of life gives and I fall through my soul, to an abyss of unconsciousness far below



Behold! The numbing drama is set, it is I, the one with no life to regret



There I go leading the charge, a battle is waged: with the enemy at large



As I stand with my back to the wall, with nothing to say evil and all



My boots are muddy with tears and stains, walking alone with the pines and the pains



A twinkle ahead, a glitter in the night, Satan's fire, yet a blur in my sight



The flames scorch me they burn for the fun, so I see again and I know I must run



Branches and leaves slap against me at will, they shred at my life and my heart it does spill



My crimson tide awash on the walk, and seeps to the gutter with the sidewalk chalk



Evil eyes of the slinking plague, they lap at my soul like a menacing gag



What is left of my life seeps to the soil, a springtime delay, a seed set to boil



Life as I knew fosters a power, to swim through the sap and burst to the flower



Energy abounds in her lofty reaches; the sweet juice is ready in all of her peaches



One bite of her fruit that sends me a shiver, through my soul and the flowing river



Tapped and recapped how I once harbored this pedal; the Golden Flower I had known sent meddle



The music I hear, a needle pulling thread, to sew up the gaping wounds in my head



A stitch in time closes my soul, and the energy returns once more full



The shining silver from the rays breaking through, look at that! Duct tape all a glitter with dew!



The patch is strong, my heart is again whole, and no more love can pour out through the hole



A horrific journey, a roller coaster through hell, this life I have lead is starting to tell



The energy is less after each battle I fight, every battle I've lost as I am losing my sight



All that I can no longer envision, and answer to explain this crazy condition



I search for the answers, they must be there, but why must they seem to be so damn unclear?
