Forever Thirsting

Always alone, day and night
Wondering why, is their sentence thus
Are they repaying a debt, from some life past
Is their heart so cold and broken, it will never thaw

Will there ever be someone, that returns their love
Or must they always be the giver, never to receive
Until the end of their days, they're seemingly destined to this fate
They ache, a solitude life, forever thirsting an unrequited love

Not Calculated

The western world, has accomplished an illusion
Through a well planned deception, we've all been entranced
Sealed in hard cocoons, of self imposed ignorance

A statue in a media created stare
Like cattle existing in states of controlled angst
Who abide on inwardly concocted pastures

Strangely, something not calculated has occurred
Arrogant manipulators have over reached
A new awakening has begun, from the dream

The old bait of addiction can no longer hold
Only the shallow and weak will remain entranced
A great parting of the global herd is beginning

The Veil

As my mind's eye hovers on high

I see a tired and sickly self

At my solitary station

Gazing into an inky eve

Tis often I’ll observe this way

As a constant reminder rote

The illusion of the man

Trifling away his precious time

The biddable well-trained servant

Earning his bi-weekly stipend

Just to be benignly returned

The price for very existence

Forever grateful to have lived

A portion my time allotted

Free from the tricksters of bondage

The veil placed at birth now lifted
