Lost It

Despise how hard you try, my empty soul Will not be filled with ancient decaying lore I refuse to crave anyone’s forgiveness I reject outdated trivial ideals My inner rhythm guides my apprehensive steps I can find my nirvana and understand Grow and learn, fall and accept defeat I am much too brave to be threaten to believe Obsequious sheep and coercive benevolence I am no longer part of you Even so I keep my head held high and fight I am able to make mistakes Without fearing the implausible consequence I accept a benign absolute emptiness above I cannot be sedated by hollow hopes and pernicious promises I dare to think, I strive to disbelieve The light I seek, the energy I crave The meaning for more, the desire for completeness Comes not from above but from inside So I will close my young eyes, open my daring heart And make the best of the palpable reality Until eternal slumber engulfs my final breath
