Flower of we

I never knew the truth of what it was

breeding withing this sacred mud

you grew within the seed I tried to sow

in that mire of truth

I twisted ropes around my wrist in fear

to stop my hands from pulling you too near

you reaped the harvest of my tainted years

the fruit I bear on my shoulder

so in the depths of an ever black abyss

a light now cuts through

then in an embrace of the blackest hearts remiss

you still shine bright and new

try to be a saviour unto thee

bring me to the self within

bind me to the center of my being

help me be redeemed

I now am ever free

free of self desecration

a weatherworn idolatry

you helped me overcome indeed
