cave of peace

in this cave of peace
time will therefore stop
and all we can do is rest
let our inner worlds rest
the blue trees and starry skies
lighting up the garden of rosy lies
and bouquets of yellow and green
serenading the heart of time
yet we are but oblivion
a road to extinction
a memory long lost, long gone
a tragedy of the present and future
begone
as the softest diamonds pour out
from the cliffs of our wake
hydrating the thirsty lives
of the city of sleep, underwater
all dried out, yet drowning in tears
crying out their past decisions
along the river of stillness
a universe masking as life
beyond the furthest planets
there can be life, there can be hope
there can be a time when we all have hope
a hope for peace, a hope for wisdom
a time for love, a time for freedom
a place for our thoughts, free from pain
and ourselves, free from pain
a sanctum, motionless
a sanctum of the forever now
where we can all be ourselves
in this cave of peace
we travel through time
a now of the past and present
a now of the past and future
a journey, neverending
a journey of the most tranquil mind
into our inner worlds
where we can all rest
