The power
To push the boundaries of finality
To face the pressure,
Crushing you.
Hand grips the steel in reverence
To the blood that fuels us all.
The destruction flowing,
As you awake on the brink of the ultimatum.
Reality blurs in the confrontation
With the demon in us all.
Self control bent on a leash, Held together
By a string of fragmented thoughts.
Risking it all to dine
In the presence of the gods,
For a moment.
Hands outstretched,
You defy imagination.
Until you fall,
Ripped apart by
An enticing darkness
That you become.
Your ashes summing up
The reality of a life
Hidden in the possibility
Of a dream.
To push the boundaries of finality
To face the pressure,
Crushing you.
Hand grips the steel in reverence
To the blood that fuels us all.
The destruction flowing,
As you awake on the brink of the ultimatum.
Reality blurs in the confrontation
With the demon in us all.
Self control bent on a leash, Held together
By a string of fragmented thoughts.
Risking it all to dine
In the presence of the gods,
For a moment.
Hands outstretched,
You defy imagination.
Until you fall,
Ripped apart by
An enticing darkness
That you become.
Your ashes summing up
The reality of a life
Hidden in the possibility
Of a dream.
