This is 'now', & now will never be again
Trust & do not tremble
in the face of the unknown,
for it won't be unknown to you
for very long,
in the sweet by & by...
As above & so below
with me stuck in the middle
Strange, to be so near to one
who only speaks in riddles
Summerhead pacifist
with eyes closed in flame
(The owls...)
Merciless harbinger
was one & the same
(The owls are not what they seem...)
As above & so below
with me stuck in the middle
Strange, to be so near to one
who only speaks in riddles
Samson brought the temple
down over his head
Kept the others safe from harm
& lost his life instead
Your wedding dress
with singe'd hems
a testament to grace
The wound that never heals,
glazed & cooling on your face
Hold the light inside you
(One day, the sadness will end)
