This Shadow of the Heart |
Life is a canvas laid bare for all to see |
Man is a mirror imprinted with lock and key |
Dichotomous gates lead to dormant ways |
Where every path was split in half |
We wander 'til we fade |
Time confounds and mystifies |
Awareness cuts like a blade |
The duplicitous curse of the gifts we share |
Soon lost on wasted days |
Let senses draw blood — drown in their flood |
A maelstrom of sweat and cold regret |
Life’s paint seeps from our veins |
Through the portals that we left |
Our shades will follow through |
Embrace the struggle |
Learn to grow with your pain |
Hope lies in the solace of a dying dream |
Beasts trapped in a corner fight fiercest of all |
Does the light not shine the brightest in the depth of night? |
Once our souls moved softly |
And tiptoed through the world |
The Atlas weight a gentle ache |
But this could not be us |
A slave to wretch nature |
A rag doll to our hearts |
To relish burden like a fool while shadows tear at our mind |
We have shaped our sorrow and became the forge |
Infernos that consumed us once have wrought a tempered flame |
But bitterness does suffocate and stone breaks all the same |
Our sculptor’s soul, though marble-made |
Eclipsed by the shadow of the heart |
Beasts trapped in a corner fight the fiercest of all |
Does the light not shine the brightest in the depth of night? |
