It amazes me how ONE little stimulus can create a long chain of ripple effects. Same with our words and actions; they echo out, affecting a wide range of responses.
You are that unfolded and afflicting part of my soul…..
You direct the scenery so carefully
tapping into my angst
as if all my fears and all I abhor meet in one place
together they coalesce to inundate me
Youre detailed in what you draw out to me
the situations you manipulate, the images you paint, the emotions you evoke
these thoughts advance even after I awake
the dark emotions over flow into reality
I helplessly reference the real world from the atmosphere you create in my head
You are the epitome of all that I fear in life
I’d rather show out of the closet for a spanking than to have you torment me….
Intellectually, I try to uncover you
But you have me running on an food conveyor
offsetting my effort to escape
You have me bonded…..
you approach me expecting the usual intimidation you evoke from shallow eyes,
I can see right through you like a transparency
the surface design is complex, displaying grandiosity
But thin is the cover that conceals the weakness……..
every direction you turn is your territory,
wide and interminable
Unfold your Red Carpet,
walk over your own deceit,
absorb your fake glory
The world has stopped to watch you in adoration…………
A prelude of events must’ve made you
You sold your true self out
As if a gun was pointed to your head leaving you no choice
You’ve entered a race, the run is continually on
cheating yourself for something impossible to keep up with
You traded yourself for a fake disguise…………….
Like a balloon youre plumping,
yet hollower inside
With a prick, you are popped and deflated………..
Of all these cluttered dots of people, a baffling individual as yourself emerges from my casual glance
Passing you by, I would not satisfy my curiosity to have you figured out
What category would you fit? Im uncertain that I should even fit you into one
What is the structure of your being?
I stare at your mysterious visage, I listen to your sensible words
radiating exotic wisdom
You are so distinct in your talk, in your thought
How I wish this being can expose its nakedness to me
How overwhelming to even begin to investigate
For not even by tracing back your pivotal life moments and childhood fixations can psychoanalysis give an account of the elements that created a complex creature
You are unknown, a tale to be unraveled…
A universe within yourself
