Progress

A Poem by The Xi of Nothing

The Morning,

Retrospective,

The end of a life before is start of something else.

The Question,

Inquisitive,

Why must I end what I want and start what I don’t?

The Motive,

Exasperating,

I have been to heaven that is how I know that this is hell.

The Answer,

Decisive,

Break the barriers of the self and you will find everything else.

The Repetition,

Redundancy,

The longer I am here the more harm I do myself and the more I realize I cant be fixed.

The Failure,

Reflective,

The mirror shows me all I never wanted to see.

The Mirror,

Shattered,

You are the mirror. You are broken and so I must be too.

The Call,

Haunting,

Finally you call out for me, and I realize that I don’t want to answer ever again.

Interesting piece... I like all of the questions. At first I was put off a little by the almost "list like" way that this was written, but after getting in to it I really came to enjoy it. This is definitely a deep look inside the human psyche...well done.
