I talk about damnation
so that I may understand the depth of prosperity
I walk my mind through our world’s fire
because only through
desperation
may I come to terms with the meaning of peace
I eternally breathe on the tip of a sword
because only then will I appreciate
being a shield to
others
I bear with restraint
so when let loose
I will never
debase the worth of having
wings unfolded
And when I close my eyes to rest
I don’t wish to see paradise
but to see reality
so when I wake
I only think about fantasizing
the life I live
