Now the hands of time have turned back in the wind All the nights have glowed With the millions of stars that have grown From the deaths of every soul that has left this tortured place We can all breath a soft hollow breath Allow it to flow down our throats Knowing that when it turns to ice It will hit our hearts with a painful stab Buckling our knees and dropping us to the bottom of this pit We will feel the thud and taste the dust as we hit Then the numbness can begin Our bodies will be allowed to tremble with the ground As it crumbles beneath our tender souls And cracks our minds apart In here we can finally find meaning and reason We can find ourselves Begin to look at the sky with new eyes Learn to cry with out the burn We can answer the dying questions and justify all our sins Mourn the lives before us and bow to all their crimes Take them as our lessons And crawling onto bended knees With folded hands Pray for just on more night Here, finally we are born |

Take them as our lessons.... ...Here, finally we are born the finish is particularly good and true suggestion: some closing up of some of the lines will tighten up the poem even more. The finish, however, is just great. thanks and -welcome-, reid |
