Disassociating Dissonance

Lost -
Through an Eagle's eye
Over Fields of plenty
Where rivers and creeks
Never run dry
But I can't feel it

Mountains rising up
Touching the pink, blue,
And rustic orange skies.
I just don't know why
… I just can't feel it

I am a lost page within the novel
No one knows my inner battles
Entering another day
Of constant trials and prattles

Lost –
Through the ears
Of a Great Horned Owl
Where life's creation falls silent
Scurrying about
But I can't feel it

Forests of trees where an
Acappella choir resounds
Magically starting the day
Reverberating all around.
I just can't feel it

And the sea sprites dance
To a rhythm of time
Reaching out to my soul
Touching my heart
Seeking to free and unbind…
I cry, for I can't feel it
No, I just can't feel it

For morning becomes noon
Noon becomes day
For everything has its place
With a time to work
And a time to play
I give up, for I can't feel it
I will never feel it

I look to the four corners
Seeking answers,
But the wind is motionless
And the world, unfeeling

For such are the plans 
    I never made
          So I turn the page….
