I am the crow
With the wind I go
To those who matter
I’m not real
To whom I matter
I’m not real
Existence goes by
(We will meet again
With form
And meaning
Changed)
Wind calls me away
To the Eternal City
Of the holy tale
Oh is it true
Oh how we’ve failed
Turning into the crow
That’s the only way to go
Oh, the transmutation pain
The world looks away
My brother pilgrim
Tell me holy tale again
It passes ua all by
(My soul stands by)
We all were but bystanders
Now we should take a leap
To dream
I’ve come to witness
What doesn’t matter
I’m the crow’s shadow
Existence goes by
To save and retry
For our world is not real
Am I
Real
(I am the rain
I am the fog)
I’m the body
With no spirit
I’m the spirit
With no body
You are the lives
You are the words
You are the love
With all that said
I shall take my leave
Remembering
The past lives:
oh, how
Turning into the crow
That’s the only way to go
Oh, the transmutation pain
The world looks away
My brother pilgrim
Tell me holy tale again
Oh how assured, how Assured
Oh how
Assured that
We matter
We stood
Should I rage against
The dying of the light
Or should I exercise
The calm acceptance
The time does it’s cruelty
It passes on
While I stand here waverly
Rage
All the ways I see
Are the ones
I’ve never wished to be
The fire of my past selves
Is fading
Right in front of me
Despite
The never ending entropy
I’m still here
Stuck betwixt the cycles
I am still here
Here I stand
Broken hearted
Naitivity
Some things can not be preserved
I can not bear to see your pain
Rational hope’s death
All the parts of me
Resisted
The signs of reality
The fire of my past selves
Stops flickering
Right in front of me
Accept
The never ending entropy
Time will not heal
Overcome the cycle
Time will not heal
