I will pretend fear can't exist
for heroes hide in fog and mist
the bloody wars and genocide
...
a seraph spoke to me
in riddles to confuse
I was already lost
so she did not amuse
...
having found forgiveness I banish guilt
forgiveness being a state of mind
where regret meets consolation
in epiphany
...
I want to go back to the getaway shack
hidden away far from the town
and if I could go where the blackwaters flow
I'd wait for the sun to go down
...
The comfort of silence is a blessing.
The world is filled with noise.
Voices hiss and prattle
like wind in the pines,
...
I hear the rumble of thunder
and I wish it would rain
rain brings life and hope
...
desire cannot be overcome
regardless of enlightenment
it can only be survived
...
Dawn's music,
secrets,
and the damp air
of early morning,
...
All in all, before the fall,
I laughed and had a ball.
And if I stall, well after all,
...
Once feared as omen from an angry god,
the sun's eclipse gives cause to celebrate.
With passing time we see all things anew.
The sky is blue; the people congregate.
