My neurotic journey

Lorenz

Architect of the words ,

chiseler of breath 

beyond afterdeath .

Refiner of ghostly gold ,

illusionist at the edge of twilight ,

a mask that never rests...

Mind adrift in boisterous clouds ,

free from all tides ,

 yet bound to the flesh 

of an unreachable star ,

stranded in the doldrums of a blank page ,

 spectral swirls turning  around my messy desk ...

And there,glides too,that veiled enigma -whose visage 

is the ash of every love I set aflame ...

 - ''  who are you ? '' 

The voice asks me . 

  - '' I live somewhere inside ,

and I come from the world over there ! ''

   I reply .

A wayfarer who betrayed his own soul .

 Pilgrim  upon his road of absolution .

   Prophet of the craziest gospel .

-'' Why are you trampling on my ground ? ''

   The trail asks me .

 -'' I have lost myself in so many lives .

Please guide me to that chimeric meadow

  of my first dawn ! ''

   I reply .

     Doctor  Roland and mysterious Lorenz .

    Healer and strangler ,

      voiceless barker ,

lost in my  neurotic journey ...

      I too missed the road sign and have gone too far to turn back. Nicely done Lorenz it gives the feel of lost and turned around.
