Kangaroo in Cube
I see everything
I mean everything
My heart was closed off for so long
That my actions felt puppeteered
Not even the most endearing song
Could reach the penultimate bleak
Swimming though oceans creek
Finding divine in the deep
The sorcery claimed spirits
I yelled to the beyond that "I'm finished"
Forgiveness has limits
Ideologies prospered
Dreams live forever
Tattered spectrum
The ocean divides still
I'm sinking slowly
Dripping into several pieces
I find solace with many a being
I lose every single one of my bouts
Slashed at every turn
The last part of me is the last of my concern
I leach and then I learn
The last part of me is the least of my concern
Everything is cast into you...
everything, everywhere,
All at once.
Slow and then fast.
And then fast until slow.
Like the bullet that speeds on its way to heaven.
Timing is all but an element we choose to control.
And then it all happens
Lost in transgression
An image more sacred than one could imagine.
A piercing on the left side of my heart
Sheathed in the pureness of blood
Crimson dynasty
I yearn to be pure again
But my treacherous ways beseech me
Closing in
The walls gain clarity
Capsizing on me
Integration of what could be integrated
The terror trampled me tumultuously
And as the darkness closed in endlessly
I saw it all
I saw everything
I mean everything.
About this poem
It's basically the perspective of someone who slowly becomes more and more enclosed in a state of psychosis as they feel they're mind closing in on its self and the journey they get through to find something deeper in themselves. A whole new light
