Temporal Abandon
the sky throws away its lofty smile
downcasting a form of forbidden grey
it touches my skin and washes away
my aspirations. soon, a downfall appears
and as soon as it arrives, the winds
carry me in the middle of a barren plain.
*****************************************
a vision of lost souls, entrapped by
the ruthless abundance of a rainforest
unable, to restart, or re-run their races.
instead, they are shackled by chains of reality,
forsakened and tortured in a carousel
of lament and grief.
unable to escape my own lies,
only able, in truth, to face the murals of a failed past.
its up to us after all, to find justice, in our own mistakes.
no one holds dear to your creed anymore.
and the room stays still, free from distraction.
he realises, a future so dear, can never be destroyed
by a past so trivial, however contemptuous it may have been.
after all, in truth, the will residing runs deeper.
change must be welcomed
through the sweet embrace of open arms.
