Ataraxia

Impelled ‘n’ tossed about by waves of anxiety
At the mercy of delusive breaking seas
Yawed in delirium of affects and passion
Shaken by the fruitless search for ease

Such is the weight of disruption
On my heart
That courage ebbs beneath starless skies

Such lies the burden of pursuit
On my mind
Drowned by the stirring stygian tides

All for the sake of Ataraxia
Clearness‘n’calm in the course of time
Exempt from any kind of verdict and emotion
To attain the blessedness of the wise

Lo and behold, I yield to these capricious winds
As sorrowing birds bemoan my lot
Thus I witnessed the blaze up in the vault
severing the ever-glooming night

Now, now I see
I have been
In accordance
With disused time
There I walked
The golden shores
And longed to dwell on
Forevermore
