Chasing MaDNess

Each day my path grows more and more broken

Like the mirror whose shards display a million different Me's

Each piece of glass reflects a cognitive view into a

   choice we choose

A level you have to experience to believe

Relying on this exhausted soul to drag me thru temptation

Heavy is the heart whose beats are soaked in sadness

A resilient bag of flesh and bones stare back into

   these shattered eyes

Having not determined if this dream I chase leads

   to madness

Perched upon the backdrop of life my view starring back

A glimpse into what consumes every single breath

A life built on the desires that enrich a different kind of soul

A future built on the courage to take that next step

Those obscure forces that try to devour your goals

Are found in bittersweet promises of those who are not

   your friends

Remain determined to over-look defeats disguise

Because only you can choose where this dream will end.
