Where is all that passion, that enchantment?
Where is all that vigor? All that thirst?
Somberness decays into silence
Silence decays into beauty
Beauty decays into despair
Half way through or two times over
The multi-dimensional cycle is indecipherable
Where did we lose ourselves?
And where will we find each other again?
I sit and breathe the conditioned air
Aware of all my conditionings
The air-conditioner hums me into
An unconditional surrender-struggle
I'm split and in the ground
I'm torne, look at my veins
I yearn to express, and to be
And to take care of those I love
But I love them all
And that is quite overwhelming
I see the death and suffering
I see the birth and beauty
The tragedy and mystery of humanity
This ultimate condition from which we can't escape
