Three spheres, three links,
all one chain -
Body, mind, and spirit.
Accept the silence, for in this you're alone.
Inclusion as a theory,
of harmony through Integration.
Logic and reason can't explain emotion,
and there's no way to quantify love.
Your eyes see and they will define,
an end goal made from this design -
Founded in sensory perception
One level seen now, but the whole revealed in time.
Accept the silence,
for in this you are alone.
Without an answer,
your mind created
Internal conflict,
constant indecision.
wandering listless,
without focus.
(Focus)
Your mind draws and shapes reality
Subtly manipulating, subtly manipulating.
The mind knows what your eyes cannot see.

The Illustration

The mind engages a view, assembles
A sketch takes shape from nothing.
The image inanimate, burns with life,
and ignites anew what was fog and shadow.
Into this world pours a vision,
woven of mind and body
A desire manifest now in central focus,
Perspective leads us into the background.
(Into the background) x3
Don't turn away now!
Time means nothing in this moment.
Flashing movement pulls us into this presence,
An internal synthesis of the illustration
Passion must be tempered to fully execute, and let the mind embrace the body’s desire.
To be slightly more, than our human condition, and see past the monochrome in a world of black and white.
Connecting the body to the mind, we decide what we define.
The mind which opens doors, and guides us to desire.
(Tempered to fully execute)
It's taken shape within the mind
(And be slightly more)
Organize these thoughts on paper
(Everything in retrospect)
We’ll only know once it’s complete
(Let the mind embrace)
Meditate on its limitations
Mind and body now spirit.
Your opened eyes, and conscious mind
(Have come as far as they know)
And Though perceived from deep within
(It exists outside of the scope)**
Close eyes and Embrace all.
Internalize and Peer out from - the mind’s eye
Surpassed to seek spirit.

Entropy
04:28

(It's never so simple,
but we must measure somehow,
Where the path leads, and where it began to take shape.
And when these doors are shut what opens?)
The pause is momentary a time of reflection,
followed by taking a step.
In another direction always trusting,
that there is no failure.
Finding again an end goal, by feel
Mapping a way with these hands unseen
A mental construction, made physical,
Seen by the eye of contemplation.
If you choose to shut your eyes in satisfaction,
and ignore reality without adjustment.
Your growth will stagnate, stalling before it's begun.
You've walked this path,
through branches and brambles.
Hacked a trail through darkened woods,
and found your own way back.
Parched tongue, and weary heart
You mustn't linger on...
One careening step,
as your mind fades.
Tap yourself into that spiritual vein.
What demons drive you on,
Through this ebb and flow called life?
Balance chaos from such entropy.
The discussion is over,
All excuses have been given now.
Follow your passion,
Or subsist on the scraps,
eyeing dreams of others.
I refuse to listen,
To these complaints and regrets.
(This life is only what we make it.)
Moments,
(Complications we will face,)
Before us,
(What matters is the way,)
We come to,
(We come to)
...Awaken.
