Closed
Lay down and close your eyes
Remember all the burning in your mind
The flames reaching higher, hotter
Than the sun shining in a straight line.
Narrow goes the vision as the
Warmth takes you over.
Close your eyes.
It’ll wash they all said.
The pain will lessen but i fear
The lessons i have learned from this
Have blown that all away.
The waves crash and the beach
Breaks into several tiny pieces
We won’t collect again.
Is there any end?
Sorry are the kings who brought
Sorrow to your lands but sorry
Isn’t strong enough for you.
This agony breaks though.
So close your eyes.
This world is alien to us
Not for one and not for two
