Veil

by Kai - Aquarius

Its the illusion that binds us to our feet
which keeps our feet to the ground

Its the illusion that keeps us from a constant frown

The words we speak
the lies we seek
Pry those stitches that are keeping us to the ground

and slowly
oh ever so slowly
the veil is lifted from over my unaware eyes
until i look evermore closely
and glimpse a world without a haze
without the fog

without the clever maze i run though
that usually keeps me searching
for an exit that isnt there

In panic i cover my poor eyes
and just breathe
and try to calm this bothered mind

"I cannot see the light at the end of the tunnel, i only see another tunnel"

Reason for writing:

    One of my many thoughts of life. The quote is something i picked up from one of the rambling pages of a Radiohead site, i would give the link but i dont have it. You might be able to find it on the official site.
