See the light and feel my warm desire, run through your veins like the
Evening sun. It will live but no eyes will see it. I’ll bless your name
Before I die. No person in everything can shine, yet shine you did, for the
World to see. All a man hath will he give for life? For life that’s lost
Bleeds all over me. I’d fallen before but it never hurt like this. Don’t
Leave me here to crawl through the mire. I’m without fault before the
Throne of God. Take from me the crown of sympathy. What do you think you’ll
See? Whet do you think there will be? Sit down! Did you see the sun? What
Will we become? Great once? The mouths that dare not speak his name, behold
Them, raised, complete and fine. The battle for our lives is oh, so brief.
Take my hand and please walk with me. When I was young the sun did burn my
Face. I let its love and warmth wash over me. The melting voice of many, in
The hush of night. Whispering tongues can poison my honest truth. Come
Dress me with your body, and comfort me. I dreamt of a dead child in my
Sleep. I wear a terrible mark in my head. My clean, white bed. It calls to
Me. I must lie down. And I want you to lay with me, in sympathy. No sad
‘adieus’ on a balcony. For one last time, just walk with me. At the
Beautiful gate of the temple, we must be saved. For deadened, icy pain,
Covers all the earth.
