Mind Over Matter

——————————————————————————————-xxx————————————————————————

Mind over matter

Triumphant 

Fearless

He walks away without a frown

Stood tall in front of a crowd eagerly waiting

A saviour in the land of freedom

The crowd hungry, waiting for food and salvation 

Damnation 

Creatures of the land looking up to a figure, godlike 

Greeting an ancient crucifix 

Fearful of death, fearless of heartache and pain 

Have we made it so far, structure of glue and tar 

Shattered across time, we wait for him

His freedom of the real and reality

Coffee in a Whiskey Glass

-------------------------------------------------------xxx---------------------------------------------------------

As I sit here with coffee in a whiskey glass

Hoping for the time spent apart to roll and pass 

Hoping for my wait, the walk through a forest with smoking grass

Patriarchy, the man, running wild, for a prey, not in the distant mile 

Seek for a you, a version of you, maybe you

Their drools swamp the ground as I wait and search, yet not found 

This day you told me, you’d return 

Now it feels like a maybe, with that sun turn 

I sit awake at night, waiting for you to knock on the door 

I could find an island in your arms, poetry in your eyes and I sit here in pain hoping not for a lullaby 

It’s hard to numb the weight of my eyes, same feeling when I’m mesmerised 

Race to the door, please, as fast, as I sit here sipping my coffee in a whiskey glass
