The Defiance of Time
Please note,
The great question is asked.
One man in loving embrace
Standing very still
As the echoes of grace
Send a glacial chill
With infinite time and space
And should he dare
To live his life
Or face the glare
Of questions rife
When thoughts compare?
Should living suffice,
In the brevity of indulgence
Will he live twice
Devoid of arrogance
In paradise.
And in this moment, divine
Which of beauty makes a mess,
Within this holy shrine
We can witness
The defiance of time.
