    Time's….ticking by, taking so long
    Me…not feeling very strong
    Eyes…starting to close
    Relief…strikes a pose

    Blood…it’s truly red
    Nirvana…doesn’t exist if I’m not dead
    Watch…the blood leave my arms
    Gone…each drop one of my lucky charms

    Peace….come to me
    Tranquility…where can it be?
    Sleepy…life flashing by a million miles an hour
    Reality…please don’t bring me back – life is too sour

    Sadness…goodbye cruel friend
    Outcome…this will soon end
    Why?…don’t ask or try to understand what makes me tick
    Ogre…yes I am – a deleted deleted

    Solution…Ozzy sang out
    Action…I’m trying it just to remove all shred of doubt
    Slipping…away – the pain is almost gone away
    Shivering…so cold now, even though it’s a summers day

    Religion…please pray for me
    Lost…all of my sanity
    Sobbing…big bursts of emotion come to bear
    Frightened…not enough air

    So long…I’ll talk to you later
    Promise…

    OK donkey........what's going on?

    I suppose I am near where you are at in your thinking about life and what it is all about. I laye awake half the night wondering what meaning there is to life and how I should view it. No matter how I view it I still know it will only be my opinion and not the answer.... and that will not quit haunting me.

    Tell us whats on your mind.....perhaps someone will say something that will bring some relief for you.

    Mystery

    Time's… ours for as long as we have it
    Me…feeling like I may not have the answers
    Eyes…but seeing that the “truth” will set me free
    Relief… that I now control my own life
    Blood…is what nourishes me to continue on

    Nirvana…exist inside of me
    Watch…as I grow stronger and stronger
    Gone…are my doubts of tomorrow

    Peace….comes to me with each waking day
    Tranquility…is now what I see
    Sleepy…and tired from a day of hard work and liberty
    Reality…brings the real truth back to me

    Sadness… only when I am not “living”, but dwelling in pity
    Outcome… is something we cannot control my friend.
    Why…instead of Why ask What will we do to complete our life
    Ogre…we are all different aren’t we? An Ogre, a saint. A troll, a fairy.

    Solution…believe as our hearts command
    Action…only to do your best
    Slipping…doubt in all we do
    Shivering…in the old belief’s we had

    Religion…is only a pomp and circumstance
    Lost…not sanity, but disbelief
    Sobbing…because “truths” have ended up deceit
    Frightened…that we will never know

    So long…to the lies of yesterday
    Promise…that we will make it thru another day.

    Nirvana…doesn’t exist if I’m not dead

    Well, this is actually true in a sense. Of course, what dies is simply all the illusions, not just the JW ones but all of them - and it doesn't really die anyways, those things never existed in the first place so they're just seen through. But, it does exist.
