Lucidity

Dragged down by weighty night

Hollow, weary eyes fixated

The world moves faster

Time is a wheel

Every second

Every hour

In this endless haze of doubt

The world moves faster

Dragged into pits of disillusion

Dreams of nothing

I am lost to this world

Truth means nothing more than human delusions

Self-defeating, self-deceiving, self is death

We are but whispers in the wind

Realize now, all we have is suffering

I am released from this blinding, white light

To find elusive, fleeting reprieve from chaos

Empty and hollow is the path towards the sun

Instead we fall as constructs ill-contrived

Into abyssal onslaught of self-hatred

Folly is man, a monument to nothingness

Must we all die for this empty illusion?

A monument to nothingness

Break free from this fog

These mists of obstruction

No longer to be cast aside

I wake from this deep, dark slumber

Break from old, trodden path

Towards the land of being

No longer will I wallow

In this pit of despair

Every second, every hour

I will spend in pursuit of meaning
