Anger and bitterness no recollection of my arrival here Almost forgetting the summit when I’m diving down to the ground Power corrupts the feet of a prophet The halo is a chain that makes them levitate Success only increases the distance from the making of it all, it’s just the bracing of the fall The…

Embers falling from a dark sky I can’t find your remains in my head Fading away through the sins i gulp A distant dream i never share I can meet you someday when you come back to me like a seizure You’re the waking after fainting Blobs of people I can’t recognise They’re standing over…

Silences pass me by Words corrupt the emotion felt I see like a caterpillar the first jump of a butterfly I’ve cried, lied, caught myself in a righteous flight only to get stuck looking at the aurora interrupted by a meteoric sky To see beauty all around or the destruction that’s impending?
