The twinkle in your lies,
The sparkle in your cries,
The depth in your uncertainties,
Had a cascading effect on my shrine.

The totem of your mind,
The eclipse of your eyes,
The howl of the unknown,
Brought me closer to the belief of divine.

I lay awake for the world to see,
I stay grounded on the hollowness beneath,
I wait for the light but it's yet to ignite,
I try to breath but the stiffness isn't easy to hide.
