The Eternal Sun

Inside The Eternal Sun
By C.E. Rangel

Tied in Knots Random Thoughts, flower pots left to rot
Unraveling me
Ticking clocks, evil plots, fired shots, seeing spots
Into Eternity
Can I weave these feelings of anguish and regret
Into a seamless memory of a future I won’t forget?
Nothing is lost in time
We all exist at once as one
Serving the Universal Mind
With no distinction and no extinction inside…

The Eternal Sun… Burns
Inside… The Eternal Sun… Burns

Blossoming into fruition
With broken wing
The butterfly sings spiraling
To the ground
The cemetery’s rose (rows) of silent beauty and painted sound
Spiraling to the ground
Headstones stacked like dominoes
Everybody knows where everybody goes
As they fall
Watch them fall…
The end is in the beginning
A sphere within a sphere
Holding all knowledge
Releasing us here
An empty train station
A bitter man
Abandoned factory
Spirit workers hands
Still toiling forever
So beautiful together
Nothing is lost in time
We all exist at once as one
Serving the Universal Mind
With no distinction and no extinction inside…

The Eternal Sun… Burns
Inside… The Eternal Sun… Burns


Rusting woks, skilled robots, building blocks, loading docks,
Unraveling me
Shifting sands, conquered lands, bloody hands, on demand
Into Eternity…

    You asked and answered...

    your own question.

    "Can I weave these feelings of anguish and regret
    Into a seamless memory of a future I won’t forget?"

    "Shifting sands, conquered lands, bloody hands, on demand
    Into Eternity…"

    That was a really good poem. I love how you got everything to rhyme, but still flow together. It took some skill to do that. Congrats on a great poem and good luck on those contests!

  • What does it mean when a secretary dream
    Of a train stationed man she will never meet, beam
    Into an abyss of bliss that miss that would seem
    To have curdled like an Incan mummy early
    In history come to live again, sow worthy
    Thoughts of how one gets caught, early, in a dream team,
    A platform crowd, an American hand green aid
    To a slave who was made to have made as shirts fade
    Off into a distance, like a morning train.

    Thats what it meant to me. The guitar work weren't bad neither.

    An interesting write and performance. The message seems to be a bit mixed but it doesn't really matter if the music is good. Good work here but you should look for a vocalist. Ha-Ha!
    Bravo!

      wow! what a great compliment! thank you so much for listening

  • Passionate!

    This is an excellent lyric...though I don't agree with all your premise as a Bible Student. You've got a good performance ability, strong voice & powerful hand with the guitar. Not my style of music, but well done as a solo performance. I can just imagine what this would sound like with a band & full arrangement. Bravo friend.
