SupernovaA Poem by Julius WhitfieldThis star that's been possessed Glows on Through these eyes, the image is reborn Into the lungs pulsates a reflection of gold Just to return the sensation In time, to unveil what's been disposed before i dissipate the knowledge of my own soul
this star that boils in me is my own this star that's frozen my nerves is my own this star that singes to my spine is my own this star that has pulled me out of my grave is never wrong
Guilt nailed to my back and pain in my eyes bleak is such silence and it still shows
under this empire is the bare of this change
will one ever transpose?
What's been built is now burning and i've been choking on the smoke of my own adversity
this star dismantles and the imperium falls with the strength of a mountain lightning strikes stones from the sky and pillars fall weak to the architecture but the heart stays beating and the mind is quite alive and theres this landslide of blood to covet the pure
with these scars forming out of my eyes and the sounds in your mind there's nothing to keep the me from survival but I cling to it anyway clinging to a world that's been downcast by us all calling through to the world that you've left alone to exploit © 2008 Julius Whitfield |
