Connected in the mind of the universe - Truthful symbiosis with the divine Unknown sounds and symbols are presented to me - Floating metaphors We are existing in a moment of space and time that is stretched beyond the point of fracture Grandiose scenario foretold by the many - Dangerous possession in such fragile wisdom Transitioning from one environment to another - Fragments of a vague memory Time decelerates to stillness - So I could feel everything Processed thoughts artificially desired Senseless deterioration Torrent of eternal suffering Illusionist of desire wishing subtle tones of silence Vehemence of darkest dreams Enigmatic muse of the faceless act Melting pattern of the mind Starving…Thriving…Beings of Nothingness Symbiotic energy in perfect harmony with the forces and the elements Pulsating convulsions of the artificial construction in thy natural absoluteness Mesmerizing path trough the labyrinth pattern of our mind Altering the perception of our subconsciousness Becoming gods of our own apotheosis

The Observer 03:30
Exploring undiscovered philosophies Instinctive - Experimenting uncharted realities Each breath taken creating a new journey - New dimensions Dusk slowly settling on thy devastated landscape Forms and Voidness - Abstract Dialog burned onto the soil Intriguing answers - Unclear to the eyes of existence Walking through the unknown The path is veiled Floating in exotic waves of warming shadows Imperceptible resonance colliding on distant shores Starving for the answers that lies beneath his feet His mind is focused on a present that is no more Like a taste of bitterness intoxicating his lips Soaked in sorrow Skin has become leather shrouding the carrion Feeling the cold embrace of Human Dust Absent from reality Surrounded by desires and regrets Splinter sunken deep into the flesh Life flowing through my hands as sand in an hourglass Nowhere to be held...The flow shall be timeless These are the events and I have become: The Observer of Reality As I struggle to form figures and textures No shapes were to hold No sun would shine eternally Not even eternity would last, forever

Imagine being here - In something known as the now If you could create, without ever looking back What would be your legacy - What should be written In this realm of pure possibilities (Realm of purest impossibilities?) We, all of us, became secondary characters in the myth of our own existence Soulless, wandering in a tale that is not ours Pieces of the puzzle fitting together without our word to say Here, where the images come one right after the other Where we haven’t painted the slightest part of the landscape On the day you'll melt with the sky What would be the dreams brought to reality? Glorious or miserable Generous or tyrannical Victim or victorious Creator or destroyer I can't walk your own path for you my dear friends I cannot dissociate good from evil from my humble perspective My lineage being my own destiny Your goals and ideals being proper to your desires I'd like to give you words, try to make you see Through the Eyes of Perception But in this world of unreason, we're all entities in a personal quest for growth We must become aware of our virtues while defining our actions Use every ounce of strength to nourish this Vehemence Which define us when facing the canvas of our individuality

From this rage, from this cold age All the grace from this world reduced to decrepitude Preconceived – Predefined Empty gazes fixed upon the horizon Mechanisms of the mind and reflections process slowly fainting through the incoherent whispering of torpor and hatred If those walls could talk, They would tell the story of a man, or a thousand men Separated from their instinct, Victims of their own limited perception Stereotype and judgment were consequences of a Vitiated existence Was this possible for them to desire, to discover? To override this gangrenous wounds which quietly spread to their deepest existence? If the writings could speak...If the symbols could be deciphered It would reveal the sorrow, the loneliness that haunted the bodies of these lifeless beings Their souls advancing....Punished in the world of the shadows A field of light filling the life of all their loved ones in acceptance, understanding and compassion. Greedy, jealous, arrogant. Artificial mind was forged in hatred and ignorance Progression impeded by narrow-minded philosophy - Preconceived ideas filling their mind I wish I could help you, open your mind, make you see Through The Eyes of Perception Silent witness of a fallen dream Be one with yourself Because in the end. From dust we came, and from dust, we shall return

Ho odieuse ironie - Démon de tous les vices Née d'une atmosphère malsaine et oppressante Le regard évasif, absent de toute forme de responsabilité La nature de toutes choses réduites à leurs plus simple expression Nous laissâmes dernière nous, un portrait riche en larme et en désolation Spectacle ignoble et dépourvu de toute forme d'humanité Les ruines de l'ancien monde se dressant au cœur d'une nature reprenant finalement son dû Paysage peint par la main immature et avide de l'homme - Synonyme de désordre et dévastation Les dernières sociétés de ce monde gravant leur épitaphes dans le roc et les mémoires Témoignage de notre passé et notre présent - Exempt de toute forme de future L'histoire traçant une ligne finale et définitive dans le sable et les écrits Que nulle forme de vie pourvue de conscience n'aura jamais de privilège de franchir J'aimerais vous dire que tout ceci n'est que fiction - Que pure illusion Mais les dernières gouttes d'encre dans ma plume ne sont que prémisse à tout ce supplice Notre emprise fut si forte, si soudaine La vie tentait de s'adapter, de tolérer Mais la nature de toute chose ne peut être niée Il fut un temps ou tout ceci était toujours possible Mais les acquis, les créations..Furent réduite au silence Apprentissages, Expériences... Oblitérés Réalisations, Coopération….Perdue dans le néant L'histoire et les possibilités…. Furent toutes effacées Le dernier grain de sable de ce complexe mécanisme Qu'est l'écosystème de notre sphère fertile Ne tardera pas à tomber dans les abysses Les secondes s'écoulant lentement dans ce doux sablier qu'est notre réalité Perdu à jamais dans les rêves brisés et les possibilités avortées Et à ce moment; Il sera malheureusement trop tard pour réaliser Que La Beauté Réside Dans le Silence Des Hommes
