Loves golden lustre
You look for love
As told to seek it
as a child told what
it looks And feels like
It’s the same as happiness
Start Searching as life’s work
as something to look to dream towards
Get sold a fable of it being happiness the two are one
Fairy tale after fairy tale,
cartoon after cartoon ending
A message drummed into minds sat when most malleable as exacting fact to attain
drip feed a dream to craft desire for a Prince Charming
And to be rescued , live happily ever after
, wait for another to take life from bad to good a rescue of distressed damsels
Made to think this the only way
to get the ending of happiness every child dreams to have
Put dependence of one’s own happy ending in another’s introduction to your own
chapters it one needs to have
like instructions to find its whereabouts
as if it’s path set this not true
We can re write and change the narrative
the ending also is upto you
and you can write what
ever one you want to have
Like happily Ever after
or to be continued, perhaps n
The End full stop as a finished story
Maybe even leave it open ended and make a book just one
Too a whole series or anthology
The book is yours to write yourself
what they sell is just their formula give you a pen and ink
The plan is to try get you to write what they want
But the pages are yours and the pen not essential
Use what ever stylus you want
And fill pages with your own content make it original and unique
Those who use their formulas never make a book worth any body’s time to read and all read the same front to back covers and so the indoctrination to hide it from you
that’s started from your birth its true they want only their book to be the shining piece to read by making sure no others is better to read
the moment you can hear
I LOVE YOU
From the parent that’s all you know
But history teaches through the transport Of sadness , tragedy and cruelty feeling
has shown all to often is a statement Spoken much but not always sincere
smashes your trust it’s even real caps your dreams to shroud it to a controlled level denying you a truth they want a secret kept from you Never want you to be free A happy soul for them it hard to control light and airy no grip can hold
don t want you to know so hatched a plan
Tell you look a opposite direction To gaze and look into a false delusion
a search of no ending
Eternal Darkness
round and round spinning relentless
never seem to find it All a distraction that Keeps you from the truth
It was much closer than they told you
But time deepens cravings of it
hunger to have it grows
A want To be as happy as others that seems found it
Willing in hope Follow instructions
step by step
Till realising
a recipe they gave you
you followed exact
Was incorrect and not even edible of desperation swallow the finished poison
A bitter tasting mouth-full
of a sweet expected treat
Swallow down the bitter poison
To fill a Empty feeling-deep within
Look for a dream what you think know of it but this has been effected by the poison that’s breached the heart so
not exactly what it is Or where its really found yet life is Love and love is life the love you seek was a gift to you given
A birthday present the day you were born
You already have in possession what you need to eat and swallow If you look inside not out
Converses and trust your heart and not your mind listen or believe your eyes
search not the stars above
time won’t allow it
in skys endless black
A journey travelled long unrelenting
When mortal shells are limited
Time filled with no hope has no true love finishing
save this for after the souls more well equipped but mortal means love must be found with searches made short and sweet
Inside shines more than dull star light the guiding heart will take you to it straight
where truth and love sit together side by side
Never ignore what’s inside
a eye of single lense open
inside the dark conscious mind
can see clear this light and is your guide towards truth
A truer version of what we call life
The epitome of love
Those who appear have it by those who think they don’t
View it with green eye envy
see them as lucky In life to have discovered such a treasure trove
it is happiness they crave for themselves
Yet Look with a map with no compass or key to guide
Times sand timer half empty
Growing a hunger inside
Sending the dammed who chose took the opposite direction to what they seek relentless seeking drive a mind Into madness as well as Turn your back on your soul it’s voice now silence the heart wilts
with no nourishment Twists the roots in resentment
Views toward life to be so cruel
A mind madness driven starts to blame life for what was but their choice
so to life surrounding them are Cruel becoming
Too cruel to self look at self in shame and judgement forgiveness forgotten,
Like life forgot you
Think it denied you what you craved
try trick some one into giving up what you think they have
as think it can only be to you a given
or taken from another’s
As a gift seduced from a hand if you try hard enough
to take it And will take it at any and every cost
Expel your self and soul in shame
Become the wants and desires of another
who rewards the object of their desires the others dreams of what you should be
get sculpted into another’s possession
an object made at the cost
of your own commission
A commission you took up
and contract signed to make your self
tossed aside
ripped in two
contracts broken both parties part ways
business is finished
from artist your turned
into just a sculptors potting clay instead of crafting your own piece
become a object created by another’s dreams ,
To cruel to self to let your own dreams be fulfilled by seeing them as valid as any others
Live the dream of some one else
Not living the dream you dreamt about
life and love truth and beauty these you know when you feel it it’s nothing you have never seen but more true-Love-found when you know how it feels
by the Loving felt inside
by introspective exploration
love Will then shine bright
Lighting the way
to your own
A dreams resurrection
