Lying in your bed Feeling the relaxation Take over your body The mind starts to drift away Towards uncontrolled thoughts That you realize are controlled But untamed and new Heavy vibrations runs through your body From your feet to your face The vibrations are spreading Aspects that does not have its roots In the physical world reveals itself Buzzing sounds and falling sensations Cool breaths and voices calling your name It seems that your receive them all Through your physical senses Yet you notice some difference A clarity that your normal senses would not reveal Hard pressure towards the solar plexus Drawn towards the roof even though You lie still in your bed One further step of relaxation Releases your astral self Frozen in the air, and then uncontrolled movements Searching for shadows, searching for gateways Once found and embraced The shadow will shimmer like a lake And will offer you deep knowledge Enlightenment is not reached by imagining light But by exploring the darkness

Frozen, so frozen The snow surrounds you Chilling miserable thoughts cross your mind As you think of a way out of this frozen wasteland When the cold winds blow And you start to tremble in despair You start to think back Of what you have done during your life You hear a faint whispering in the wind As you listens carefully, you realize What this is all about You are trapped within the freezing roof of the world With only the wind to sing the tale of your doom Rest now... Because your journey has just begun
4.
Meaningless... A word that keeps coming back to me If everything will end in due time What is the use of trying? The feeling of joy returns once in a while But it will always be short-lived Being blind to the side-effects; The blow will be harder every time Death is always welcome in my thoughts Yet when invoked Fright will appear The dominant darkness rules my torn domain What I think is meaningless Is valuable to others People do not see the world as I see it They see happiness behind every corner What I see is death and darkness lurking Behind every corner This world is not meant to be For me I feel lost in my own emotions I cry for a way out But the road I wish to take Is not mine to find...
