Love Amidst the Ruins
We live in the shadow of giants
Yes, and it seems that
the light we once knew
is dying for lack of
oxygen
Yet we believe it can
blaze forth once again
If you do not
believe in the dance
At least trust the dancers
to do their very best
All eyes are upon us
as we touch the sky
Perhaps we will learn
one day
to live like clouds
Floating gently through
the air
We'll face the
shadows with courage
and we'll let the
angry winds of despait
pass by
without having much of
an effect
on our fragile forms
