within the farthest light
I see my nature fall
within the faint of time
I see my heart turn off
this is last full breath
that I seek for myself
as I can close my eyes
and drift over this world.

the language of the sun
makes blind the second fool
as he reach's for the ground
seeking his undoing
he's forced to let it go
the anger that undoes his face
so he can soar ubove
the wasted years of his embrace.

to the farthest light
the city falls under its spell
the arms of all the crimes
that whisper their own private hells
it cashes in it's sin
so it can feel human again
the anger and the tears
are payment for the world to begin.

Michael, I can't seem to find the words I need for this.  It is so sad, but yet is true.  Deep and dark.  Keep writing,  ME
