I'm sure that everyone shares this human delimma.
Sweet obsession Manic infatuation Locked like an ancient mystery In a golden cage of blissful devotion Without the key of delight To open and reveal its possession Caught up in the earthly roots of longing That inspire all the ghosts within me To steal the dreams held in vain When feathers floated free Burying my memory Exhausting my body with sleepless nights Finding me with no sanctuary To escape my misery My obscene performance To engage in this struggle To find the happiness I feign to possess Mirrors the endowment of belonging To something greater than I harbor Is one predisposed oblivious mess!
