LIGHTNING

On this cold hostage,

My heart awaits

Bound by the seduction

Of distilled silence and thoughts

I am ever vulnerable

With a steel key within my blood

Taken by the trance

Of a million haunted screams

I am darkly clothed

With a tingling gasp within my throat

Enthrall,

Nothing compares the heaven

From a paradox of views

About life and its connections

Mesmerize,

A moment of happiness and joy

Is what creates turbulence

And makes dreams suffer

Tantalize,

Fury lashes out on a mountain

Of solid character

That nature has rendered immovable

Hypnotize,

Knowledge does not levitate

Nor does it alleviate

The eye that sees beyond

Confounded by the inequality

Between love and indifference

I am weighed, piece by piece

And was judged heavily

Stimulated by the situation

Of how creation meets destruction

I am left undone

With a plan to be understood

On this cold hostage,

My heart still awaits
