I hear a horn
Death calling my name
What have I done?
What must I say?
For my tomorrow
For my today?

High leaps from mountain tops
Overlooking
Different dialects and words
I am taught.

A question for reform
I ask you how.
Can one transform?

Rest my past .
Reveal my now.
Challenge my world .
Show me how.

I wanted to say these words
Without hearing myself say them

I wanted to repeat these words
Without having to weigh them

Until I arrive
Am I leaving?
Now in this time
I am grieving.

For my brotherhood
For my meaning
They misunderstood
I wasn’t just dreaming.

A part of destiny
Because they don’t see
What they could be

I have yet arrived to the place
Where I can know
Everything about who I am
Or where I can go

But it’s ok.

Because until I arrive
I am leaving
Now in this time
I am grieving.

I am alive.
I am breathing.

Now this time
My life has meaning.

I see a bright foggy sky
Glimpsing up to view
Your thoughts in reprise

An assumption of acclamation
Recorded by declaration

Looking up
You’ll never understand
You’re only worth your hands

Looking up
You seek persistence
Because your existence
Is in a value system

Herein will lie
The mass construction
Of they’re disguise

Herein will lie
Possibly the destruction
Of our demise

Midair captures me
And I don’t care
I wrap up in rapture
Exploding every flare

Afraid of a dark alter
Stomping up infinite steps

Dissipating under me
I am kept

Octagons and windy signs
Captivate me
And my dark eyes

Midair captures me
Exploding every flare
I wrap up in rapture
And I don’t care

Running to forms streams
From race to race
I yell for screams
From face to face

On a plane of peace
Worries and despair
Gone today
But always there

Midair captures me
Exploding every flare
I wrap up in rapture
And I don’t care

— The End —
