Eyes close, only to be opened;
Nothing really changes,
But only alters forms.
Shapes non-discreet dance
Across the heavy eyelids,
Molding and reworking
The fabric, the essence
Of every woven dream-thread.
Thoughts entwine, intersperse,
Reflected on the still waters
Of afterthoughts.
What is gained
With unknown knowledge
Ingrained on wrinkles of mind
And curves of soul
When the heart pounds its will,
Imprinting insight on the spirit?
Somewhere someone in the depths
Of undiscovered islands of thought
Cries to be saved,
To be spared from drowning
As another nothingness
In a sea of forgetfulness.
Reaching out,
I pull and find who I am.

A recent one? I like it, especially the way you ended on discovery.
From 2002, actually. 🙂 Thank you.
Aha…I looked for a date and when I didn’t see one, assumed. Shouldn’t do that! 😉
