All I Ever Wanted

All I Ever Wanted Words like violence Break through the silence whips, chains & blood What is truth ? columns of cement alabaster vestibules to run in the distance, a path at the opening of a forest to bask in the vast expanse of the day chosen to bow the knee to pray along the path a dark figure rises eyes with spots having holes in the side of head a shallow pool is inside the walkways abode I pause my head to think Can't even wink to dismiss this earthly bliss with a time well spent in thought a bridge elapsed through the mirage of the moment dark creatures manifest their heightened madness I moved away to see another face that of a maiden in waiting for her lover which was me yet all I ever wanted was the truth to behold onto another moment or that of episode
