Pressing Matters

I have the need to lose all senses
The need for the mind to lose all reasoning
A troubling world where emptiness shelters
A nothingness to ultimately be asking

And they do not come
Perhaps never will again for all I know
Every single thought with nowhere to run
Where is life living to never yet behold?

Falling away into ensuring depths
Reinventing ways for tasks never met
And do analytical theories often crept
With a thousand tears, I have yet wept

I need to stop thinking
To stop asking unfounded questions
Yet I cannot stop myself asking
When moments but presents doubtful reasons

I tried to suppress but my mind oppress
A seeming life of its own beyond control
A lesser life for an ever mind to never rest
Is there truly life to never behold?
