coil

 
dwindling in the noise
corrupt of thought, I fall into the dark
where it is quiet
to the place with no light

too many faces crowd in on me
I feel clausterphobic, in my body
slience the din
allow me to enter the void

it is vast and open
my soul flies and I feel free
smothered by the world
I need to breathe

gentle need, to be in the abyss
where I can swim
midnight calls upon like a gentleman
inviting me to the night

tenatively, I open my mind
the cloying thoughts leave
and I am able to think again

a calm comes over me
among the angels I rise
I can feel a thousand eyes
watching on stoically
while my Father removes my binds

inside the Onyx Kingdom, where I am loved
with apologies, for leaving my senses
once again, I feel the mortal coil
tethering me to a my flesh
with the knowledge, I am needed here
