The Ultimate Truth

I close my eyes
and break all ties,
no time for goodbyes,
just 'hows' and 'whys'.

From the world of lies
and of painful cries,
to the land of the wise
yeah I arise.

With suffocating sighs
of relief and surprise,
I stain the skies
with paints and dyes.

I miss cream pies
and the spicy fries.
Well time flies,
that's what I despise.

For the lows and highs
of my life, I surmise,
Is this really my prize?
'Nah', my mind denies.

So pointless a man tries
and the trouble he defies,
until the time he dries,
and then the man dies.

  1. Beautifully deep. I have never thought that breaking ties is the right way out. Better it fades than it’s broken in my opinion; a subtle difference.
