a new journey
a journey of darkness
summoning the din
clinging to memories
bubbling within
the secrets of light
set down in the dream
blood flowing cold
ripping each seam
a time of great terror
the heart beats no more
a life once held high
it fell to the floor
yet, time marches on
the watch ever moves
great stones in the stream
forever, they’re smoothed
off in the distance
the turnstile of light
grows larger each step
an expansion of sight
as the entrance draws closer
a ticket, he finds
in a deep newfound place
as the journey unwinds
peace overtakes him
in simplicity, divine
as perfection returns
to a heart now resigned
the scales are no longer
that impeded his sight
as he left the old journey
and entered the light
