Belden Raiser Poet Lyric

Glimmering Shine

Fury, wrought in a bygone age
Memorialized and destroyed in a tumble
Heaped on the pile of broken dreams and promise
We are each one gods —drained of our icor
Each moment—closer to the forgotten
Where the west lies oh so precious—
Each moment—closer to the forgotten
At arm’s length, cheering until 

Now is your time to shine 
Your time to live
Your time to formally acquiesce
All the pounding—no one heard
Each moment—closer to the forgotten
Where the west lies oh so precious—
Each moment—closer to the forgotten
At arm’s length, cheering until 
At arm’s length, noises forgotten

Silent One August 30, 2020 at 10:56 AM seems like a hint of sadness in your words... Belden Raiser August 30, 2020 at 12:52 PM The piano part will be dark also, but hopefully buoyed by a rousing bass line :)
