But we let up the rein. 
Endurance flows through our veins, 
But we still live in pain and disdain. 

We have much, 
We gain less. 
We hold the torch, 
But...

I hold it up again today; the world,
Pregnant with magical dimples
Of a child's reckless abandon,
And look at the face,
Then I look at the deep cut
And the pain it inflicted
I look back at the unpaid ransom,

Beyond Persistence In Silence

Asleep while awake
Walking among the living
Trying hard to break
The monotony and gluttony misgiving

Lends to the sultry atmosphere
Saturated with dope
As departed souls in the troposphere

For eternity in serenity
Ensconced in minds so busy
