|
You lie in the snow, cold but not dead |
|
stare into the sun, long since its last heat |
|
feel the freeze burn skin |
|
salt your open wounds |
|
a burning desire clears your eyes |
|
a willful air fills your lungs |
|
you choke your first breath of wildfire and ocean's depth |
|
climb out of your hole, see your spirit take form |
|
this world of cold stone gives nothing in return |
|
to those who sleep while the restless burn |
|
there are the few driven to flame |
|
most are content to drown in the wake of dreams |
|
the trail lies overground |
|
across the years fade out of light |
|
ever growing dim to an age in the dark |
|
grasp from your soul, don't let it steal your eyes |
