Like a petal in the wind my mind flutters
from one thought to another
struggling to hold on to a mirage for support
I fall and fall
I don’t know how God lives on a cloud
Prayers can’t hold me up
the cup is set before me but I don’t want to drink it
yet I always do
half empty or overflowing
it’s not until I awake again that I regret my decision
maybe if I could erase my memories I wouldn’t suffer
ignorance is bliss
I don’t know
ignorance is, and can life can be lived without it
happiness and suffering don’t have to go hand in hand
our lives don’t have to be any way
we don’t have to be anything at all
but still we push
and I push myself
pushing for some distant point of light that I will finally enter and my weight will be taken away
where sleepiness will never come
and prayers won’t exist
and neither will I
