Unfinished Exchanges


The dark arrives and shadows the light,

Embracing solidarity, my heart is void!

Life's a mystery intimidating,

My mind overthinks I feel excruciating.

My life's a pickle of truth and lies!

Frankly, it's a hot mess,

My salvation, my peace,

Take my last breath, and that's all I need.

Now the mind is the heart's nemesis,

Suffocating in deterrence.

Like running a maze, I search my way out

To the distant horizon, I push hard.

Consumed and demented like an inferno.

I sold my innocence with time,

Exhausted in the search of light.

I leave my mortal vessel.    

Now I'm set for an adventure,

A traveler with no hassles!
