Nameless King

Stargazing from within Acknowledging the end I gave myself away To allow what may Standing in my way I cast my doubt into the bay I arose to a winter solstice I blossomed like a lotus Orbiting without direction I am true, I am fiction Sitting with my heart open Living with my psyche broken Whispering prayers to a nameless deity Wishes echoing throughout eternity Counting letters Searching for something better Sweet is the taste of love & life Heavy is the weight of guilt & strife Wandering the deserts of New Mexico Wanting to let go Of this poison That Fate has chosen A glutton, when it comes to too much of a good thing A siren, captive to every throng life brings I sing Only to never be made King.
