Coming To a Circle
Deserted for a chance
to redeem my burning hands,
alone in foreign lands
that promise evil in advance.
For if we seek the source
of this irony and force,
we may find we're not lost
in fact, we may find we're the cause.
Impacted by afflictions
and convinced we are the victims,
we complete a broken vision
and decide with indecision.
We dream what we are not
when awake; we're conscience thoughts,
but the difference will be lost
in all the dreams that we forgot.
We fear the in between
of our reality and dreams,
we all are born to bleed
into a void we haven't seen.
Take humility over purpose,
take depth over surface,
take the stage over curtains,
and take my life before it worsens.
Take away my burning hands
for this is what was planned,
life brings death to foreign lands
which conquers evil in advance.
