Surrender Poem by Stephanie N Kjarbaek

The city's a moving body on fire
A series of those dying alight
Lost to suppressed bastions of desire
Ready to come alive after midnight
The truthseekers give way to liars
And yet, only truth comes out after midnight
The last plane in the sky dropping low
With all these people in tow
Strangers who do not believe in surrender
Underneath a dark but foggy sky
As the lights shake in the distance
Given to the moodiness
The light disappears, the ground trembles
Oh be a good one, live a good life
Give up all your independence
Find some relief in repentance
Against your own spirit of rebellion
Grow up, now, and find submission
Die out like the glowing evening lights
Across the lake, like aurora in winter
Skies above buffalo-land, still bright
Give into.....surrender.
