Out of the sun an outline of truth
Darkness draped in brilliant light
Blinded – unable to gaze
Down the chasm of enlightenment
The rays sting my eyes as I turn to the sky
The scornful face of a merciless sun
Unable to slake my thirst for insight
My mind desiccates with ignorance
A perfect image of contradiction
Reflecting in my fading consciousness
Fierce blazing light
Perfect solid dark
My thoughts invert
In the barren wasteland of insanity
My only light is that of the sun
Bound by shadows, now lead astray
By luminescent lies
What if the world as I know it is false?
What if illusion is the only thing real?
I’ve sought the line between light and dark
The incision between life and death
I realize that my search is futile
That all and nothing are intertwined
My mind scorched by enlightenment
The sun sets on my dying eyes
A monument to my failure
I disintegrate
