Anguish & At Last

~

To sing the worst
note of life ..

The sword must fall
Blood we spill binds
I commit to why

Of heart withholding

In anger is no choice
Fatal desire taken
Reason has no place

Vengeance unleashed

Colourful eyes have faded
Dreams season treasured
This flame no longer

An essence

Answer is surrender
Truth becomes anguish
Carry one more tear

As we can never come home

Inspired by the film “Hero” in a scene where Flying Snow
challenges Broken Sword to a duel and he gives up to show
her the truth.

AT LAST

We release from a fetal cry…

From the last note of heartstrings
I hear your song from within
Sweet voices to hold us
I bow my all with you
We now go home
As one…

final repose.
