..Fire.. Year 23
_________
Once lost 'fore rendered
Ostracized and hopeless
Burdened to surrender (yet)
We hope we know this-
World can be rough
Bound as tight as trust gets.
Alone in our minds
Fixated to find
Where our soul is
Hiding, holding loneliness within thoughts of
Years yet to come;
The abyss of existential thought
A desire for love
Still and aprehensive
Counting down
3...2...1...
Rendered Alas!
The key in hand
Two doors locked
With signs luering her in.
One says "Your Future",
The other reads "The Past".
With a key in hand
She takes a step
Leading like a leap
Wind bellowing, spinning fast
Anticipation running wild
Her heart skips a beat
One more chance
To make
A New
Loneliness in thought
Asking "What am I to do?"
Hesitating again
She stares at the key
Until she hears something
Quite like a scream.
Face to Face
with the demon of reality;
Time starts slipping away
As does her energy.
Her vision tunneling
The Past door disintegrating
Her fingers fumbling
The key illuminating.
Soon enough the door bursts
"Let Me In!"
The screams echoe
More and more until she gives
Every part of herself-
Exposed into her future
A soul searching to find
It's reflection whom was trapped
Inside
A body hesitating behind
A door made of bricks-
Soon shatters into thin air
The energy emerges
Releasing all burdens, lies
Tricks and despair;
It's like she was home again
Though
To a place she's never seen
Connected with herself
Greater than she's ever dreamed.
She opens her eyes
With a thought waking her
From her sleep
"Lost and Rendered
A sweet story to read
Together forever
Welcome to Year 23."
