Darkstrand (Hibakusha) |
| Creation creates a void |
| My hand held to the glare of this burnt impasse; |
| yours |
| Necessarily on the other side of some sickly metaxis |
| You’re caught in stasis, matched with mine |
| Quantify time with meter and rhyme to calculate a way to prove that you are |
| alive |
| Isolated, trapped between |
| A picture of you now stained on the street |
| Oh mother, teach me how to die |
| In your shadow, I saw to a distant future |
| Your life was only a nominal fee |
| Singing the sound of silence, signaling the end |
| They took your life, mother, as a pretense to pretend |
| The hand that feeds us sat you down |
| Covered my eyes, thrusted the styli |
| Retraced the timeline to call it suicide |
| Will you wait for me? |
| Death was the chorus, our lives frames in refrain |
| Softly we sing notes better sung by our dead |
| I’d rather sleep and see you soon than die alone |
| In the waste of this nuclear catastrophe |
| We were made to create |
| You spoke us out of nothing |
| Out of the chaos we caused |
| Naked we came, shadows we leave |
| Salt of the Earth: preserve their songs |
| Light of world: burn out the shadows |
| Infinite echoes of stifled screams |
| The abyss you created will ever stare back into me |
| Will you wait for me? |
