The Uncertainty of Life and Death
Of unborn dawns and unfulfilled destinies…
Of untold fables and undone faith…
Of unsung songs and unsettled scores…
Outside…
I stand in the bright light of the burning and vigorous sun,
I stand in the loud sound of the chilling and furious wind,
It’s the feeling of a world that has just begun,
It’s the feeling that the world is about to begin,
Back to the time when we were young,
Back to the time when we had not sinned.
Redeem the way…
Reveal the truth…
Resurrect the life…
Inside…
My eyes shift back and forth,
Side to side, in random order,
And wonder what it’s all worth,
Until everything becomes a blur
And my eyelids close on them,
As they start to call for freedom.
Do I care? (Should I care?)
Do I care? (Would I care?)
Do I care? (Could I care?)
Without…
Eosphoros says hi and good day,
Hesperos says bye and good night,
Starting today, we will seize the day,
Starting tonight, we will be alive!
You and I and You for I…
Such and such, by and by…
Encroach the infinite…
Enrapture the immortal…
Engage the impossible…
Embrace the immutable…
Within…
This day and this night is the time,
And our heart and soul
Will glow and show,
Close your eyes and I’ll close mine,
And our thoughts and minds
Will float and flow.
Why aren’t I awakened?
Why am I not enlightened?
Why haven’t I ascended?
Why have I not transcended?
External…
Here comes the time and age
When the first shall be last,
And the last shall be first.
Everything in cyclic change,
All things come to pass
To sate fate’s unending thirst.
There is a ceaseless drive to survive.
We must persist to exist.
There is a constant strive to be alive.
We must resist to subsist.
Ah, the frail amaranthine line of life…
Internal…
Remember you, remember me,
“Forget me not”, I believed it not,
And that was so I thought…
But now you’ve opened my eyes to see,
After all these years I’ve sought,
That you have not forgot!
The rusted and lost fellowships…
The calm and saccharine kinship…
The silent and old neighborhoods…
The muted and distant childhood…
The still and bittersweet affinities…
Of Reflections and Reality!
Of Echoes and Eternity!
Of Vibrations and Vitality!
