Into The Abyss…

The mind is immeasurable
a transcendent
world of thought
belief in the intangible
world of the imagination
unconfined by the physical
limits of the brain

taking rise within
your being
inhabiting the essence
an entity
unto its own
responsible for
"I"

formless states of mind
peaceful and deluded
searching
for its meaning
unobstructed by the physical
perceiving that around you
understanding what you know

providing needed clarity
insight in our lives
filled with
countless fantasies
a conundrum of the intellect
the words
of every book

delusion and deception
the bane
of its existence
defiance of the truth
colluding
with
the willing

distracted by the nonsense
the obsession with
the self
confused by all the suffering
avoiding its own truth
to believe
in a lie

moments of pure freedom
times of great despair
emotions that run wild
forever undefined
perceiving our reality
our many
states of mind

deceiving
its own thoughts
denying it,
its bliss
pulls you further
deeper..,
into the abyss.

I really liked the ethereal affect of this piece. It really gave the feel of a journey or a slow fall into an abyss. A lot of abstract concepts in there. Thanks for sharing.
