The world will break one day
but I will be gone when that happens
already perished from the exhaustion of holding goodness together
on my shoulders and wrapped around my waist
between each finger and scrawled all over my face
I would have held it all up for the whole world to see
standing there for millennium
through vast lands and seas
standing on mountains of turmoil
and looking through the cracks of bravery
I would cry weep and choke on my tears
but I would still reach for the stars
appreciate the fiery red sun
pick up every diamond resembling a rock and every rock resembling a diamond
and place them in my pockets for the weight of the world to bear
I know from an outer surface
the fight will be extinguished in the end
but the inner part of my soul
wouldn't ever mind having to pretend
that maybe one day goodness will spread out over the landscape
pouring in every object being and soul
and it would be alright that for me by then
time and vulnerability would have taken it's toil.
