Wrapped around a fragile truth
A vision of a tree that's burning
Driven by a heart that's yearning
Written in the pages turned,
All that I can't synthesize
The echo of a damp that's fading,
Distract myself with intuition,
I close my eyes, hoping that it clarifies
All that I can't synthesize,
retreat into my self -reliance
All that I can't understand,
Condescending and abandoning
As our pampers lead the children
Sleep becomes a fleeting friend
the wanderings of thinning thoughts,
the seeds of self -deceit.
Time becomes an ally to me,
Steadies me in certainty,
I close my eyes, hoping that it clarifies
All that I can't synthesize,
retreat into my self -reliance
All that I can't understand,
