The Rush Of The Koi Fish

[Mr. J]

To soak in divine waters and relive my forgotten youth
or open a box of truth and talk to a mirror that talks to you
send prayers like apostles do, to angels in their watchful view
search the world I crossed into, evil reflected mocking you
neither aquatic, your fear grows deep, growth is impossible
you disappear just as your pride as it was bottled too...
leaving you less than logical, even less than knowledgeable
the pros, the cons, the thieves of life are the paths you cross into
I descend deeper into the depths grasping for a beacon of light
searching for a reason of why, this need for seizing of "time"
manipulation has been a human nature since the meaning of life
the mixture appeases the mind, but no answers are even defined
it's hard to understand the idea, yet the questions keep me aligned
keep me "alive", and pushes me in a flow of time deeper than I
mythical in thought, dwelling where the most ancient of creatures reside
treasures of forgotten kings, the castles, achievements of..time
the moment lost in a couple of seconds, my troubled ascendance
I become humble and pressured but never held down just buoyant
the weight of the passage alone would crush an annoyance...
