Untold Moons

some untold moons have come and gone
still my mind has not set me free
are the waves of thought that flow through, a great gift
from my creator
a gift that I have always longed for
or a great curse from the  spirits that lurk inside me

I feel I am in my final hours
music is my only friend
the  flowing waves of thought cut me deep and sharp
through my heart…

as the wine spills, the waves give me such joy as I feel
my life slipping away
weaker each day
trying in vain to recover from this torment…

I still love it
I can’t stop it

I can no longer live under the burden that haunts me
what else is there
I have no strength left to search for answers
this was not supposed to be
Is this my destiny

I must confront it now before it is too late
it is too late

an eternity could pass and still my mind would not set
me free
this can not be a gift
but how can any thing else smell so sweet

I now pray for the last drop to be gone
that I may rest in peace because
I just can't  figure it out
