~ Time pasted like the breath of one
sky into the next
For everyday in every hour we had lived our death
Now I see time is a dream
And all the things you said keep running in my head ~

There is a story inside of me
It sings in a velvet rich voice that is heard across the eleven skies
Of order and chaos and how Death had made its home inside of me
It screamed and it begged to be liberated
But I tamed that wild beast
And now I no longer fear death
It is my guest
It is my friend

And I wish my words could deliver you from fear
And I wish my words could deliver you to paradise
And I wish I could describe just how simple this paradox is or was or never really was
And if you could only understand the sacrifice I had made to be able to enter this metaphysical place with such grace

And lately it seems in silent nights when I cannot sleep in the mirror I look at myself and ask the same question
Over and over
Do you see what I see?
Do you?
And I know you do because just like you
I see everything too
But can you feel everything?
Or hear everything like I do?
If you could would you shatter like I did?
Your broken pieces cutting broken pieces of me
A million shards stealing my reflection upon reflection

Who have I become now?
Have I become infinite?
Have I become algorithmic?
Or am I still just another statistic?
And how long will it take for me to catch myself?

Will I wander forever in search
Lost in this fast paced abyss
Am I a sleeping princess
waiting for a charmed kiss
A kiss on the lips
that will bleed your name
Screaming in vain
in the glittering ghettos
that delivered social pain

My memories of you were written in
the hands of Heaven
I recorded the stories you told to the last syllable in time
And that was the last time I did ever hear from you
Hidden in the eloquent smoke and shadows
At the edge of the world where the barricades of Heaven fell
And only in the darkness
is the truth found
