There in the light
The glistening dew of tears
The salty waters fall
Into shallow moments
Passing so quick
Too quick
To the roots of all
Sorrow there
as the wind invisible is there
Between the limbs and branches
This glorious sadness
Forever to grow
For the seeds were sewn
An eternity ago
Rest now upon the light
The eternal and sorrowful sight
Brought forth in pure delight
For sadness is pure
It is forever in the roots
The endless cycle of day and night
Be it ever so bright
For eternal a day
Is eternal a night
There in the shadow cast
May the memories last
And rest
Oooh, I like it! I like the ending, it’s powerful! 🙂
