Visit, or...

I know what I saw, and I know what I heard

Anyone who's on the fence, has not a moment occurred

Where in which an explanation was vacant or void? Evasive?

No rational way of facing it? Basically that's the state I'm in

Welcome to alienation, which may or may not explain it

If I'm just being honest, I'm pondering my whole placement in

This situation, it's craziness; yes, I am cognizant

Of exactly how I sound while pronouncing what seems preposterous

Condescend all you want, though it's not as if I can stop it

No more than I can explain it remaining in my subconscious

Every shadow hides a form; in every wind, I hear a whisper

Feel a constant presence near me; there's an orb in every picture

And I wish there was a surefire way to know that I'm okay

But the fire's in the sky at night and brighter than the light of day

I lie awake in wait to face whatever event eventually

Occurs and wonder what's at work; what sort of energy

Emerges standing next to me semi-human essence

I'm left with no frame of reference and nary a point of entry or an exit

Where'd they go? Where do they come from in the first place?

To materialize in front of my eyes then disappear quick as they come

Is it my mind playing tricks again? Or is it them? Do they exist?

If it's a bend in the realms of sanity, am I imagining

My own reality? Seems I'm caught within my thoughts

I can't believe what's happening, or--as it seems--what's not



Continual confusion, illusions; am I delusional?

When I think I've solved the puzzle, in comes another such inscrutable

Element to the mystery; never will we admit defeat

That still don't mean we understand any experience we dream

Or conjure up; not enough evidence to say otherwise

Regardless how convinced I am still unable to summarize

Or fit this all together; the pieces remain scattered

Jumbled in the mumbles of those who retain answers



I know that I don't know anything about

What's happening, but damn if it don't drastically keep dragging me

Down to a level unsettling as the devil

Heaven help me, I keep telling myself that this isn't mental

But questioning how it's physical; no answer yet has fit the bill

I've got nothing but a grimace to exhibit still

Uncertain; pull the proverbial curtain, things have worsened

Waking up to red eyes staring at me from an undetermined

Source of sorts a shape able to morph

The flutter of black wings in the dark; a tour de force

Of something otherworldly, perhaps interdimensional

A siren or a sentinel; the watchers have assembled

Though not all of us can see, it seems, the truth beneath the dream

And these possibly prophetic experiences I need to be

A part of for some higher cause beyond our understanding

Then again I may be dreaming and none of this means a damn thing



Continual confusion, illusions; am I delusional?

When I think I've solved the puzzle, in comes another such inscrutable

Element to the mystery; never will we admit defeat

That still don't mean we understand any experience we dream

Or conjure up; not enough evidence to say otherwise

Regardless how convinced I am still unable to summarize

Or fit this all together; the pieces remain scattered
