Analysis of An agitation
What can I surmise from plateau to an abyss
from my heart beat I soared and then this
total confusion
The answer of prayer can't change my dilemma
that's found rooted in another disposition
of another person I've met
Whether we meet again my thoughts linger
upon the idea of us breaking bread
though instead I now agitate My subconscious
