A Distant Shore

A Distant Shore

Beached upon a distant shore I wondered about my life 
Beseeched by solitude all I could pour out was sadness & strife 
I reached for something in the distance that looked like it was a knife 
It teached me to be indifferent as I knew my thoughts were running rife

Extending out with a notion leading my mind toward the dawn
Pretending that without devotion things are soon to be forewarned 
Defending all of the commotion as my spirit lays there torn 
Upending my torrents of emotion as I pray to be reborn 

Pertinent proclivities that can’t hold onto prevention 
Militant sensibilities that keep you a candidate for detention 
Indeterminate absurdities that seek creativity for invention 
Recalcitrant eligibility’s that defy the next mass organised convention 

Incantations of a prophecy that came true far too soon 
Lamentation of Sophocles by the light of the full moon 
Emanations of soliloquies that are about espoused around high noon 
Invitations of proclivity that contrive while I turn up the latest tune 

Observations of vibrant conversations while I go without vocalisation 
Sensations of reserved consternations bring about the elevation 
Emulations of salivation over something close to revelation 
Colourations of computations that lead me toward general devastation
