Rise

It's early morning time spring is blooming as do our bodies It's evening time the moon is shining as do our fire time stories Quelling the evil that lurks deep in our bosoms to keep it from the Rise We often forget, that first mistake The heartbeat starts small in the chest pulsating with the rhythm of the wind We are invincible until catastrophe Until the cacophony of the heartbeat Will Rise maddeningly into the throat It's in these small moments of demise that our bodies ache to be ethereally eternal When the blood cloaks our eyes into the everlasting abyss that once we came screaming out of, that we slowly Rise back into We may not last; our legacies may neither Just do one thing for me Remember to eat your grapefruit for the bitter can taste sweet After bitter time spent Perhaps you can rest easy
