Oneness

Oneness stands all alone
Its patience died, it has nothing to show
The burden bared drowned me in pain
My oneness comes until it drowns again

My silence moves gently to see
The calm blue days, the coming of me
I want to know that I can save
The calm that comes, the peace in this place

Nothingness shines back with truth
The dark that hides the guilt of my proof
I need to know that I can stand
But in this place I’m dead by demand

Oneness came, now it will fade
There is silent glee, then silent disdain
Nothingness with more disease
I’d try to scream but that is defeat

Numbness stands all alone
My heart has died, but my patience grows
No burden held apart from this rain
But oneness knows that it will rise again
