Crawling from underneath the Power which cannot be owned Nor contained an illusion obsession A lethal compulsion and ever present All absorbing shadow You are engulfed and deformed Power you could only wear but never fully Possess To stand up and carry yourself Under the light of your truth Faithfully catching reflection Never escaping The only way to liberate Empowerment Pure and transcending So much more than power itself

Between Gollum and Dr.King
Crawling from underneath the Power which cannot be owned Nor contained an illusion obsession A lethal compulsion and ever present All absorbing shadow You are engulfed and deformed Power you could only wear but never fully Possess To stand up and carry yourself Under the light of your truth Faithfully catching reflection Never escaping The only way to liberate Empowerment Pure and transcending So much more than power itself
