Why Not Start
Aidan Koop
Drunk with lucidity
I sit there staring
Perspective blurred
Vibrations felt but unheard
Borne out of my unconscious
These thoughts flooding the self
Always follow the flow
Warp that old perspective
Washes of colour
Illuminate my mind
Bridging the chasm
Between chaos and my mind
Still the lake that is your soul
Feel the waves around you
Let the ties to your illusions
Lapse and fade away
We are the ones
To characterise humanity
Share your compassion
And worry for others
For we're all encompassed
With the same sense of grief
Trapped in this state of unwell
I wish only for peace
Bewildered by the illusion
Captivated in the soul
