You came bearing flowers
Replacing the reaper
With two blue irises
To see past death




You called upon walking giants
To storm across desolate plains
And fought a fortress of
Silent snipers




And yet still
I wonder
How did you get in here?




Hush now.
The natives are sleeping
And when they see their towers torn
And deprived of stone
It won't be just me alone






I will rebuild with your flame
in my heart
For your outstretched hand
Has been de.light.ful
But before I go
I must thank you




... Ill keep a part of me open now
and ill wait
tIll the world gives up
or we do....

An ancient portrayal of conditioned hearts ducking and weaving through thick and thin in order to bring a result, of which only will surfice if the heart is content with its efforts...Excellence.
