When will I understand?
When will I understand how the world turns?
How it magnificently spins on its axis.
The beautiful gardens that I seek do not exist,
Nor provide any comfort.
I am entrapped,
Tangled within my own beautiful networks of lies.
Lie, lie, lie
To myself and others.
Professing that one day I will find peace.
One day I will recognize the man in my reflection.
Or one day I will accept,
That I will rot beneath the weight of my own despair.
Thinking,
Thinking of a way out.
