Phaneron

How fragile we were,
but all remaining fragments will make their way back together
Taking responsibility of my
Misshapen reality

So why am I so afraid?
Of all of these things that are not persisting, not in my way
As if the past was more constricting
than the binds I place around my own limbs

Have you overcome it?
The existential drive to know yourself
Abandoning your failing senses
Your pages open to blank emptiness
How can you say you're finished?

Reality filtering through the veil of my psyche like a sieve
What doesn't fit the shape is forgotten as if it never existed
If what remains is all I perceive
Love has been forgotten decidedly

From the lowest point of this crevasse we've thrown ourselves in
Just to get to the start seems so far away
It's assured we haven't learned a thing from the lessons
Guaranteed we haven't retained any information
Constantly betrayed
By my own imagination
Unwarranted wishful thinking

Oh why am I so afraid?
Of all of these things that are not persisting, not in my way
I won't let the past constrict me, remove the binds from my
My limbs
Release

You will find me at the ends of existence
Searching for forgotten perceptions
