Sometimes spirits never break

I dont want to be invented
Not berated
Not conflated
I am in the summer breeze
I am begging on my knees
Never saying what im thinking
Always floating when im sinking
Craving success
Pull dont press
Heavy comfort in my breast
In the simple, yet unknowing
In the heart that keeps on growing
You are what you want to keep
Always waking in your sleep
When someone else has your brain
You might still be just the same
In the cold and heavy winds
My inversion always sings
Somehow i keep conjuring
the same mistakes im harbouring
Convoluted indecision
Diluted thoughts in deep precision
Self impalement on the stake
Sometimes spirits never break
In the surgical conformation
Of a dying rotting nation
Desperate attempts to make one bring
All the things that make one hinge
On the faces of the timeless
In the formless hidden temple
Like waterless rain or a windless gale
A ship with no anchor crew or sail
They fear betrail
And stomp without fail
On the fresh graves of the weak meek and frail
The only way to heal our wounds
Is to let the skin scar
Always come near and always aim far
Always hold dear
And leave open, ajar
the door to our minds
Our hearts, our neighbours
Without ever truly knowing where you and i are
We all do share the same basic feelings
The same core needs,
wants and thoughts and senses
When hurt we all bleed
and yearn for tomorrow
Sometimes for the past
We give and we borrow
Joy and envy, freedom and sorrow
