In Waking LionsA Poem by N.S. Bennett
My heart beats
Slow, steady, well defined A simple way to create A world colored outside the outline There's nothing better Than knowing you're waitin' inside the illusion A fostered insecurity calling us together Now we're all one among the substitution I won't give in to sleep I won't be taken again A beast amongst the sheep Wild, untamed, a light-hearted lion They will not take us Proud and patient Find us waitin' in the forest Animals we are in our fake skin Awake the natural light Oh, sleeper where have you gone? Awake and see the night A lion's roar will greet the new dawn I won't give in to sleep I won't be taken again A beast amongst the sheep Wild, untamed, a light-hearted lion © 2015 N.S. Bennett |
