If only my shyness was broken,
And sent with a wrath to its grave.
If only the words that I've spoken
Were welcomed with more than false praise.
...
Take me back to where I was,
I'm far from ready for the world.
Lead me back into my shell
Where I will lay, forever curled.
...
Seekers of the light
Charred by the flare of it's aura
Swirling in nocturnal reverie
In ecstatic pursuit of thy prominence
...
Through the life that I have crafted,
Through the seeds I've left unsown.
Through the swiftest of betrayals,
Reaping all I've ever known.
...
I've seen the sun rise.
I've witnessed it's fall.
From the frigid to the scalding.
I can't pinpoint whats beyond.
...
They gather in congregation.
Their prophet wired into their core.
To avoid, and yet, to conquer.
The blood on Satan's sword.
...
At the zenith of my being,
I can see a light ahead.
Illumination slowly rises
From underworlds of pain and dread.
...
This coil shall end abruptly
By my own empowered hand.
The curse of aging will not take me,
I transcend its dishonoring vice.
...
With the ego cast away,
You see this gift in brand new lights.
The bigger picture is revealed
Within the landscape of the skies.
...
My wings have spread like righteous fire
That melts away all grief.
Awakening the dormant will
That spent far too long asleep.
...
