Paralysis of the heart The lifeblood of my mind Behind it pulls apart To find a pulse in hiding It had been beneath me A gentleness to the world But untangled, untwirled I fell from the pedistal Into a tender ocean below Now I sink beyond the water Landing deeper than creation Volumes rise above To the pedistal I once loved Others welcome me And I sit to drink their wine With every sip I smile Leaving decadence behind

Cynic 1999-2015
Paralysis of the heart The lifeblood of my mind Behind it pulls apart To find a pulse in hiding It had been beneath me A gentleness to the world But untangled, untwirled I fell from the pedistal Into a tender ocean below Now I sink beyond the water Landing deeper than creation Volumes rise above To the pedistal I once loved Others welcome me And I sit to drink their wine With every sip I smile Leaving decadence behind
