Oh Well

Inspiration hits as minds meet on a separate plane
It's amazing when encounters provide such a gain
Universal, no question of translation required
Like taking steps after your feet have been mired
For ages, but what does this spark indicate?
The timing seems wrong; I'm entrenched, we should wait
I'm ahead of myself, I don't know how you see it
If you aren't feeling it, I'll deal; so be it
I know; neither should I; but how can I prevent it?
I knew I had limited time, but I've spent it
On superficialities; things I regret now
I know I should stop; but I seem to forget how
To function as higher; I've been swimming shallow
But I want to go deeper, and they're far too callow...
Disgusted sometimes with the mindless assuming
They do constantly; life is a fire, they're consuming
The leaves and the garbage that burn leaving disaster
I need cleaner fuel; my mind wants to go faster
But exteriors exert way more toll than they should
How I want to break free into something that's good
For my mind, as well as my person; it's tough
Realizing what you wanted isn't nearly enough
Living for others is like living in chains
What they want is one way; I need two separate lanes
Because the path is quite winding; it twists and it turns
I should probably be happy; but I can't, my heart yearns
To take the next leap and they can't seem to follow;
Guess what I eat isn't something they'll swallow
How I want to move on; then I start to have doubts
I guess some of my wishes can never play out.
