Listlessness

Missing wind-up key
lethargic symphony 
doll missing its dream

How do I break out
of this maddening nightmare
my unfulfillment

Branches in the road
which path leads to my passions
Fairy-tale Journey 

Life's uncertainty 
energy deficiency 
path blocked before me

Where am I going?
fog encases around me
Possibilities

Manifestations
the apparitions discuss
the game of my fears

Fighting listlessness 
penetrating light calling
to keep on going
