Single Discomfort ..



It lies not in our hands
to love or hate
For
that will in us
Is overruled by fate

It is though with us
To uphold and choose
To tether, scamper ..
Move ahead or be refused

Consummated
In this anomaly
perplexed to dissolve the
binding affinity

Living on a prayer
To gather courage
to save
the dying integrity

The silent thought
and the whispering lies
The pretense that lingers
in the mannerisms
And the truth
that shines in the eyes

The hurt lies
In the ulterior
The antidote we seek outside
Once naked ..
How can the truth be disguised ?

Standing alone
Hurling in this abode ..
So used to living underneath
the surface
Waiting forever in
the eye of the storm

I ask from
the heavenly skies
I still ask from
the shadows of the hue
Letting go of all I've held on to ..

Completely Incomplete
Overwritten yet far from obsolete
The single discomfort
Drives my sight
Furthers my resistance
and
keeps me alive ..
