Short Of breath

Inside my brain there is a captivating twist to my confidence
An unassuming linger in the back of my clouded mind,
Swimming haze struggles to breathe the air of the profoundly beautiful
Only to come up short of breath.
And there I lie at the shore of insane humanity
With its irony and sarcasm waves floating over me
Wrapping me in its intensity, so quickly carried away.
And there I lie trying to breathe the air of the profoundly beautiful,
Stuck amongst the sidelines at times where I should be in the game life plans for me,
If only this, if only that
If only all the if only's can float away into a dimension of non-existence
Rather to stay awake In the dimension to which they are undesirable
And there I lie trying to breathe the air of the profoundly beautiful and catch myself short of breath
Struggling between the mysteries and deceit that lay so carefully underneath the grains of secrets.
Amongst the most strangest beauty lies the unseen,
The one where beyond the eyes is where the treasure hides away from the obvious
In the very pupil of your soul,
Lies the beholder of all that is beauty and all that will be beauty,
So quickly matching faces to his expectations and views on the meaning so many search for
What is true beauty?
Is it the portrait America shines before us of rail thin bodies
Or ones made out of plastic?
Or is true beauty the one that leaves me lying there in the shore trying to breathe the air of the profoundly beautiful and finding myself short of breath,
Only to find my breath in the air supply of the beholder,
Getting drenched beneath the eyes that seem to hold the stars and all their wisdom
Beneath the stars that seem to hold al the beauty Ive ever projected
In his eyes a world of shooting diamonds and blazing fireballs
In his eyes one word screams out
As it reaches to the surface it finds itself short of breath,
Beautiful.
