Sojourn

Awakened by the chilling wind,
Disorienting my fragile being.
A lifetime has passed
Spent in blissful delirium
To which i wish to return.
I have come to find
That the truth is bleak.

My eye forced open wide,
Bleeds at the sight.
My flesh burns at the touch.
Cacophony rings in my ears.
Speech is of vomit,
Disjunct and hideous.
The landscape is scorched and scarred.

Shapeless figures
Wander through this mental wilderness.
Blind to their nature,
Where self dominates all.

I find myself baffled,
Simply in awe by the genuine emptiness.
I catch a glimpse of light shining majestically
To which my back is turned.

Pledged never to go back,
I declare delirium as my lord,
To which i am permanently bound.
