Lost Lies
I mourn the loss of my childlike lies,
That covered my still gauzy eyes.
Gauzy only for I had just awakened,
To the face of mother World.
Born from her, she played with me.
I laughing sat in pretend faery trees.
But at long last I stepped on stone,
And tore the veil, revealing that I was alone.
I never meant to do this much ill,
But the longer here, the more the blackness seems to fill,
My heart, mind, and soul.
At first I chose to be in the World,
but I lost my way,
And now for many days I search,
for a path back to the place where I became
This monster, maybe I could turn back time,
And find the laughter, avoid the lime,
Which rubbed away my innocence.
Now I stand, the day almost done,
I soon will return to Father earth,
I will become as one,
With the dirt and soil which I once so fervently loved.
The very soil which bore me and made me,
Adam of adamah, add to breath,
Upon thee, living rock, I will breathe my last.
