Omerta

what is passion
what is love
am i truly on fire
for what i believe in
or am i merely deluding myself
wallowing in the siren's song
intoxicating yet deadly
or is my cause just and right
do i fight for something
that i truly believe in
do i strive for
what i love
where is the line then
between that elusive love
and that all too common
infatuation
where is the line
does my so called unbridled passion
incite and inflame others
or does it inspire and encourage
do my cries of war and vengeance
arouse the desires of their heart's
or merely turn them from me
i cannot fathom
why they do not
cling so strongly
to so magnificent an ideal
i cannot comprehend
why they do not give their all
for what bred them and fed them
i cannot understand
why they do not seem to love
that which has given them so much
the same way they cannot understand
why i do the things i do
can i truly complete that journey to glory?
or will i
like those before me
fall short of the goal
torn apart by my companions
by myself
then again
what is the glory that i seek
am itreading the wrong path
the wrong road
what is the love that i posess
is it a true
pure desire
or is it a corrupted
drugged up reality
what are the companions i have
are they brave and loyal friends
accompanying me every step of the way
or are they mere figures
on canvass
that melt away with time and troubles
when everything fades
what have i done
what have i experienced
what have i done
to change my world
to change the world of others
to bring back that light
that resounding sound
to where it rightly belongs
what

questions to ponder
questions to mull over
questions for plain sight
questions for the guitarist on a lonely night

i didnt break my thumb
probably a big sprain
maybe a slight fracture
thank God
