set apart


 set-apart 
tactical intrusion 
optical illusions
 set in place
 put in place
 it's all in front of your face 
though you can't see
 what you can't see
 yet you can see spiritually 
attracted to attached to what you can't see 
the wind comes from One Direction 
going through the tide that binds
 untie you the status quo
 is left alone
 selfishly it imposes
 I know that you don't like tired roses 
Thorn pricks the skin but yet you stand you're within the optical illusion it's just
 an intrusion
 you're not as you appear
 to be boisterous alternative endeared 
yet so burn them you been slinged 
you're not a has been 
though you're off and considered less than
 precious thoughts materialize
 yet invisible totally obstructed opposed ostracized
 your constructed your energy aligned in invisible 
your true self is spiritual won't you rest upon your laurels as your morals be on set 
I am delusional but yet non-contusional
The focus is on my flesh 
yet I have none left
 for the sea the spirit is over the flesh
 I'm a vessel I like shining bright
 I'm set apart with a beating heart not a flesh
 or stony heart
A winner not at loss
 one but one of energy I am the King's son
