Tie up a ribbon
Make sure it stays
Tugging it tight
Make sure it's strong and intact

******* a ribbon
Hoping it stays
Tugging it again
Strengthening its hold

******* a ribbon
But it is starting to come loose
It's untying itself
It's coming down

******* a ribbon
Made it so pretty
It looked beautiful
But it has loosen
And it is gone

Even if
I were to tie it up again


Will *you stay?

Cherish the silence
Clasped hands in peace
Open up your heart
Release

Serenade the ocean
Look upon the horizon
Open up your wings

*Fly free

Freshly painted seasons of endless woes
Vanishing faiths and worn out beliefs
Yanking them together
Burying them beneath

Venomous insides of a youthful mind
Hateful demons dwell, unjustified
Release them back into the wild
Knowing they would be back soon enough

Catching another breath
Picking up once more
From yet another reckless fall
Only to prepare for the next war that comes along

But by then it would be different...

*For the fallen had been wounded
They will only know
To lick the next blood and move on
stronger
than before

Someday...

It will be...
Their turn to speak...

...Of *these resonating heartbeats

Angels will find freedom
To grant them blessings...

Zealously sweet stories
Written in stone
For their everlasting comfort
And peaceful memories...
