where the wild flowers grow

0 posted 2006-10-12 03:07 AM


Pale wind rushing through the strands,
where time once existed as a myth,
muscles caving and the degenerate eye
wanders once more, rejecting its vision.

There is the father,
whispering to the mysts that he is innocent,
though they know the truth.
The skin is singed, he lies in wait
and only has the strength to lie,
mouthing the words as they begin suffocate.


Oh tender fate, softly grinding the words within my bones...

Sorrow measures itself in blood,
Grief lives upon the weeping,
Love knows so many boundries,

and still the wind carries these along
as if they had no weight or distinction.

Caressing the veins of which
your cold blood is pulsing,
like our bond between the world and
what we wish it could be...

He lies...
that's all he can do.

Prey oh,
pray..

that we may misplace these memories of hopeless matter.
Our knees grooved by the god we made.
