To Emptiness

Part I: I stand here looking out across the land; So vast and yet is covered by one hand. I turn my head and gaze up at the sky, Through endless heights that spiral up as I Turn round and hear them coming from afar, But never knowing what and if they are The ones who, from the web of time, were spun As I see that my journey has begun. Part II: I stand upon a mighty post up high And look upon the world below. Across this world I cast a critical eye And ponder all that you don't know. They all are sanctimonious as they Preach things of which they never thought. They teach it all but they have lost their way; Within their dreams they have been caught. Stop wasting time and turn your thoughts instead Towards the thing we know for sure; Awaken blinded minds within your head And you are wiser than before. Part III: I have emerged from in this life To see the light of darkened skies. I leave behind both love and strife And whisper all my last goodbyes. I spit into the eyes of those Who have helped me to realise The things in life that no one knows, When all we see and hear are lies. You look at me but who looks back Behind dead eyes; forever closed? Your mind is still under attack; All happens just as I supposed… From when I realised the truth: Ongoing death is greater than The disillusioned dreams of youth; All left is just one empty man.
