[ The Labyrinth of Denial ]
























Such void of hurried non-sense
   That I hath rendered
merely within
Of it, hadn't I seen a glance
   Yet kept rendering therein
The shadow of my rigid existence -
   To where yesteryears seem akin -
Has forsaken it's mere matter,
   For it counts not without such sin.

How such shadow could conquer it's matter
   How such matter could forsake it's mind
For I'm no more, oh dear, a still matter
   But a shadow still, sore and blind.
Verily, conquered my matter I have,
   My mind, is forsaken and disguiled.
For I shall learn the very difference
   Between that of pure Joy: E
xistence;
And that of a shadow that has merely lived!
   Yet always been denied...

Such conflict... Such paradox...
Such self-peace lost, not given!
Lo! The shadow of my rigid existence -
To where yesteryears seem akin -
Has forsaken it's mere matter,
For it counts not without such sin.

Although this isn't usually my style of reading, but hell dude!
This stuff is really heavy,
"
And that of a shadow that has lived a distance:
Yet has always been denied...
"
I mean common! That's out of this world!
Amazing simply!

All the best regards,
Tamer

Thought provoking write. Denial is a self woven web that catches the weaver. Excellent piece.
