Outside This Life

Outside This Life

A Poem by N.S. Bennett

All that you are not
And all those scars you've got
Will lead you to the end
Where I've been watching the world sleep again

Breathe it in and
Forget our sin
Forget our spoken names
We journey to that sacred place

I've always been lost
A picture of hopeless indifference
I've always been lost
A constellation of light in the distance

You are a silver dream of mine
My only reason that seems to bind
Your golden grace bestowed on me
Leads me to a sudden peace

Awash in the star's ocean waves
We are cleaning our souls for our graves
Death is waiting for a single thread
A pale golden hair from atop your head

Breathe it in and
Forget our sin
Forget our spoken names
We journey to that sacred place

I've always been lost
A picture of hopeless indifference
I've always been lost
A constellation of light in the distance

I've always been lost
A picture of hopeless indifference
I've always been lost
A constellation of light in the distance
