Rabbit holeA Poem by The Raven King
We have all been so wrong Happiness comes after the fall The path to heaven leads below not above
Love is an ancient God that requires a blood sacrifice Lay your heart upon the altar and be free
Let the fire sear its flesh Let the blade tear its meat Let the rain beat down upon it Let the dark life's blood stain the stone
Sprinkle the ground with red moons
Hurt til you can take no more Then hurt til there is no more to take
And when your heart is mishapen and dead to you Foriegn and strange Return it to your body
Discover depths never explored heights never imagined Hear for the first time See for the first time Feel for the first time
The big things are beneath recognition the small things are all that remain
your ever taken for granted breath is a clock Inhaling the future Exhaling the past
Concentrate
breath in
and know
you are alive © 2008 The Raven King |
