Leap of Faith
Silence is my enemy.
If it appears and you leave,
I won’t be alive anymore,
And though I’ll live, I’d rather die.
Yet I’m tempted by the abyss of your mind
And the shadows it brings.
The promise of fruit makes beggars dance,
And me resist.
Every day I could impress upon you a million reasons
Were you not fasting so strictly from temptations.
So I know,
That when the time comes I’ll have my proof.
Your eyes will belong to me,
And I will extract my vengeance from them.
We will stand on the edge of that cliff
And jump into the valleys of eternity
That lie in crevices of our minds,
And the earth will move on unaffected
As the universe changes within us.
That day, I will be fearless,
I will be fearless.
