An Illusion

by Roy Knowles

With a whisper it calls your name
One more thing done and no more shame

One more thing done then you can rest
And I will save you from life’s stress

Promises everyday the voice makes
Once drawn in your energy it takes

You are home to a place so well-known
It feels so familiar down to every bone

How did we get here your Spirit cries out
Your sanity you begin to doubt

It was that voice that promised me peace
The pain I hoped it would cease

Pain from chaos swirling in your mind
To the beauty in life it keeps you blind

Until one day you say no more
And begin to stop your internal war

After clearing the wreckage of your past
A new Voice will appear at last

An Illusion is the name of the whisper you heard first
Real Peace and Serenity I know you do thirst

Realized not by chasing the lie
That will never end until you die

Forgiving yourself and others for deeds done
Will free your mind to soak up the magnificent sun

Prayer and Mediation provides another choice
To listening to that first voice

So when the Illusion appears and says follow me
Say no thank you I now have tools to be free
