This will make no sense...until it does
It begins...a pool of calm, reflections perfect,
stillness undisturbed with the sound of nothing
a steadiness that seems endless
with time that seems limitless
and yet...we know better
the pebble that's thrown as ripples shatter
perfection destroyed with sounds that scatter
forever instilling in quiet minds
peace forgotten your out of time
the emptiness of places that once were filled
eyes lost in worlds out of reach
mouths lost in the art of speech
making sense in words that have no reason
insanity that becomes your reality
yet you keep waking keep moving
keep faking
even as you read this it makes no sense
yet you keep reading and feeling that sense of knowing
as the time goes faster the ripples still grow
that feeling that niggles you know you know
the space keep emptying
the voices keep silencing
and yet you keep reading and why?
The world is tilting and with it we lean
lost in our own minds no room to reflect
this is digital not physical
what did you expect?
The uncertainty and confusion all becomes real
realisation in reading what you actually feel
its ok take your time you will get there you'll see
that dawning in silence as loneliness encases
then you look up to faces
and then it is clear, its always been here
surrounding consuming staring in our face
look up from this screen and you will see
blink once blink twice blink thrice then SNAP!
this is your reality ...
