Collage of a Mind

By Storm

Such a distraction.
:The wind never change direction unnoticed.:
I found this fraction;
:The winds never change...:
A fault in the foundation
:...unnoticed by the leaves.:
A subtle mutation.
:Wintertime there are no leaves.:
Growing out of me.
:In cruel cold of winter...:
A twisted treachery.
:...leaves die and winds thrive.:
How did it slip by?
:And now the darkness is closing in on us.:
With no time to say goodbye.
:But the stars have been out for long..:
Would have needed it.
:..hidden in the light of the nightly sun.:
And now I’m leaving bit by bit.
:Even now when the night is restored;
Bittersweet disintegration.
:No constealltions act their myths.:
Trapped in this stagnation.
:Whom, but the stars, look down in times?:
The lull before the explosion.
:To watch the dead world changing.:
Of heldback emotion.

:Autumn’s chasing the yelloing leaves..:
And this riddle I can’t solve.
:..thorn off by the changes of the wind.:
Into what will I evolve?

    But damage can be healed...Hela...Where the darkness is darkest your light shines brightest...Solace...

    Trapped in this stagnation, unsolved riddles, disintegrations...Minutiae destructions from butterfly wings...It slips by unnoticed, stealthy, your eyes close and open to the damage...

    The collage is everywhere lena but it is all the same picture, many within a whole, you take the good with the bad and the ugly with the beautiful...equilibriums...revolutions...

    Evolution is painful, it is gradual, it is suffering...But who is to say it is a good thing? Who is to say anything is better off somewhere else? Who is to say anything at all?

    Those first four lines are like...the wordlessness, the image of so much that i want to burst and i dont know i'm bursting into and what for...its feeling and not understanding...its breathing but not because you choose to...
