Time Warp

Let these words escape my lips,
A plethera of thought,
Pouring from my fingertips,
And lying frozen in this spot.
Mesmerized by times gone by,
So here I linger still,
Capturing an alibi,
In dreams that slowly kill.
A future under lock and key,
With footprints in the sand,
This fate completely up to me,
Is sleeping soundly in my hand.
Moving forward in a haze,
With thoughts as real as air,
Memories of kinder days,
Are more than i can bear.
Nothing looks or feels the same,
And just as I did fear,
The only person i can blame,
Is holding up inside my mirror.
Theres ashes littering the ground,
The past has all been burned,
A stagnant breeze moves it around,
And leaves it overturned.
My sky is black; the earth is gray,
And still I wish to soar,
To keep my emptiness at bay,
And feel the gusts once more.
A grounded bird, a severed wing,
Instead I’ll brave the sands,
And pray despite my wallowing,
To live through these forgotten lands.
I come upon a solemn dune,
And much to my surprise,
There shone a light under the moon,
Leaving flickers in my eyes.
A capsule half submereged in grime,
With latches just beneath,
Beauty here in all the slime,
While peeking out from underneath.
I found Pandora’s mystery,
Its contents still repressed,
And once inside what did I find?
The missing beat inside my chest.
