A Mental Incantation

For once I am going to think the sky is my limit    
There is nothing below my feet but dusk      
Waiting for the calling of Dawn      
In my pain, I can only will thy self to remain to be better      
To shelter the unseen scars      
Eyes will never come to see      
Hold back the river of tears      
Others will never know exist as the streams fall in silence      
Can this body of life      
Pull myself up      
When the soul feels broken      
My shattered illusions just too heavy to continue to carry around its burdens      
Will I one day awaken from the internal battling madness      
And continue to allow the weight of gravity to pull my mind down      
In my reflection of my mirror’s pain      
I am the only one stand to remain      
When I turn away      
I must still face the progression of the world      
Be the voice of reasoning found in the core of my heart      
Just a spark shall give my tomorrow hope      
I will uprise against the mighty wind      
With my eyes I am the open portal to my own dreams      
In my destination I will no longer refuse to wallow in the murky abyss of my chaos      
This life was ordained to be MY treasure map      
Knowing the hidden fortunes of my being is always within me      
As I search the rite of passage unto myself      
And as I come to the end of my rainbow      
I know the universal sun will still always shine      
On the dark clouds from which I have come forth
