Shadows of doubt

On this night,
An irresistible urge to write.
A deep feeling dampened by
a seemingly subtle lesson tonight.

Our world, we created
Our world to define.
Our battles procreated. 
Our rules to refine.

Rules define paths,
Paths set, paths limiting..

O ye of timid heart and mind,
For you the world awaits.
Bosom of treasures to find
With gates conjured in seeker’s mind.

Rules are runes,
Runes are charmed,

runes die.

We shall forever teach nature,
The false in our ways.

The light in our path,
Are shadows of ancient past.

Our own shadows,
Lures the unguided spirit,
Into deemed ecstasy of
Warm illusions,
Of lies,
Of deceit.

Let your mind so wonder,
Lift your heart and ponder
For solemn are the true seekers,
The ones who live
for others forsaken.
Whose sacrifice
Lightens our path,
Casting dim rays,
To be blocked,
Snuffed out

By our shadows
