My determined purpose is that I may know Him -- that I may progressively become more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him.
(Phil. 3:10)

Dripless

I'm here today - possibly gone tomorrow.

My water is shut off - my spiritual fountain seems dry as well

My mind is stagnant - a spirit that doesn't seem to be moving either

I am in a place that I have been in a while - visiting old friends errr demons

Think I could melt into the center of the earth - taking my psychosis with me

I feel truly, utterly, impossibly, tragically invisible - truth not seen with the naked eye

The fishbowl has become too small - my tolerance, patience and kindness tiny in portion

My tongue feels like cotton in my mouth - words are sticky like spiders webs

Head pounds - heart barely beats

Fingers move of their own accord across the lifeless keys - me barely moving at all really

Moving through the motion of my life at a sloth's pace - feelings seem like molasses

Interactions less than desired - interactions always expected, no excuses

God, please not another emotion - God, please give me more emotion

I'm sick of your diseases - drowning in the side affects of my own

My inner self is diaphanous - delicately sheer tears threaten to fall

Could curl into a ball in this room - there is no room for "inactivity"

My reflection mocks me at every turn - Turning my eyes to avoid the expectation

I could die this lonely inside - my euology mocks me to wait it out

The roaring fire of the Spirit - merely a bleak smokeless ring of black inside

I have run so very far from it - I have gotten nowhere

Unsure of whose I am - tired of always trying to figure out my destination

My mind wanders to thoughts of how easy it could be - reality laughs and simply stares at me

I need ignition soon - combustable explosion is the only way to live

Rise like the mystical Phoenix from the ash - covering my head till all is gray

Where to now - waiting for a jump start to a dead battery

A spark - a jolt - a nudge - a sigh - a glimpse - a Truth - an embrace - a wholeness
