In that dark place inside
Where somber shadows spy
Deep into the unknown; down a rabbit hole
Turning and twisting
Thoughts collide
Stagnant after a heavy rain
Lie dreams within your brain
Waiting to be unveiled
Instead put onto another shelf
Forgotten, sad and still
Where only dusty remnants remain
Occasionally, a soft light shines
Bringing such joy into your eyes
Illuminating the very core
I reach out for your shimmering warmth
When suddenly, you jump with me
Off this highest cliff
Battering us into a vacant shore
Each time, picking up these fragments
Leaves me bruised, battered, bent
I can't piece us back again
Nor will I pretend this is sane
Until we both disappear
Becoming specters, empty and spent
Please follow me out of eternal night
Where angels carve out our light
Away from the unknown, guiding us both home
Loving and embracing
This Life
