A Never-Ending Circle

Greetings, people.

Here I am again. After months of inactivity and facing the world I’ve found that I’ve wound up on this site again. I thought that I might have been able to focus on work and get my head off from my own negativity. But it never works. Time and time again I find myself coming back to the same conclusion – I have nothing to live for. Others might have people who love them, or a lifelong passion, or an unfulfilled wish. It might just be true that I have given up on life itself, and my contemplating of it only furthers my sorrow. My life was not in vain, however, as I have decided on burning myself for the brightening of my loved ones. Call it a kenosis – I have been giving all I have to my loved ones without a single expectation for reciprocation. Perhaps when I fade it will be into a warm and bright light.

Alone
In the light
Fading through the breeze
Of a thousand pinecones
With uncanny symmetry
Every second
Peels away a layer
Over my soul
Melting
Into fresh warm soil
A veil in the heart
Gives way
Brilliance of
Shining rays
