Lost desire in the Silence

The moon and sun circling over faded blue lines of twisted hope, entangling the earth in desire and pain.
the enslaved follow invisible chains, tied to their lifelines.
Dust moves along the collective mind and leaves nothing but smoke from burnt out inspiration.
silently in the dark, the battle never begun, and lives are never lived.
The silence is everything, nothing and both more and less than both.
We live encircled by the silence, forever nothing more than faded dreams and lost desire.

Lost desire in the Silence by

I wrote this on the way to a writers meet. It was inspired by some deep thinking, and a need to get my mind away from a situation I had just found myself in.

    Has your situation improved since this write? I hope so…

  • I’m out of that situation now thank you mark. Luckily it diden’t last all that long. Just long enough to make me uncomfortable enough to need to reach for the pen.

    Makes me wonder if we are naturally slaves to our desires… in a world where some desire to be masters…

  • You know, I think we might be… Because at the end of the day, its those desires that keep us alive.
