Recurring Conscience

Past a nourishing conscience We find that we’re alone Through the pain and heartache There’s all but none Thought transgresses the soul Nourishment loses its hold Lost in the gaping hole Of the unimaginable untold All alone we wander Through the spaces of hell Where our mind is leading us No one can really tell Where will my heart lead me? Get rid of that burning conscience Dig deeply To find its convalescence I will never understand the pain you’re going through But in the gaping holes that we do dwell You will find me darkened too I lift my soul from my mind And bury it in my life Steer clear of me if you can be so kind To make the voids more whole Find me Find me and Forgive me And make it go away
