The Light
Something draws me
To the light
Do you feel it?
Letting go of this
Pain
Suffering
Is my desire
I'm bolted here
Cannot leave
Cannot
Go home
To the light
Look at my hands
Dripping red
But something still
Pulls at me
There's a path
I know the way
Following my memory
But my memory
Takes me
Back to
The grey median
Between
Black and white
I see the outlines of
Olympus
In the horizon
The ray of light
Shining
Through the
Cracks of
The mask
She held
Her hand
Out to me
I reach
.
