All That

I've learnt so much But stood so still The love and peace Of what's good The hate and chaos Of what's evil Unable to move To do all that Has to be done Alone in a solitude sanctuary Facing the outside Half dead, half alive I'm in a daze Gibbering like a madman About what i think i know From lying on this bed I've managed to have The whole world At my feet I've managed to talk To the wisest people That are left unsung But there's much more To learn while i'm The captive viewer There's no quick cure It's all very common But still it devestates My life My future My heart is breaking Probably writing my future After all of this Left with nothing Cold inside and out But maybe Just maybe Now that i'm nearly gone Nearly dead and alive The point i'm resurrected I'm left stricken to my bed.
