The Hall..

The Hall

My hands know
the one thing i live for.

Daily a journey
towards the endless steps

never enough. My eyes
weigh more than any weight

Yet, my hands reach,
for they know the steps

of many ends
and other lives

I have lived
for the stone steps to turn
inwardly

Wth each day
I write my name backwards
and wait
