Golgotha

Casted shadows take the plain to quench stricken impurity
Some relief from the crashing waves raining down from the sky
Silhouette in the distance of a maimed tree unyielding and pendulous
Tattered hands breach the black pull me in from the back of my mind
I’ve laid my path out of dust and bones
I’ve shifted through the dirt and through the snow
Surpassing even the event horizon
When did I forget that all things grow
Feeling my palms burn but now pain escapes me
Darkness seeps as a viscous oil coming over my eyes
The sun has set on an empty vessel to disconnect
Join the others this is a place death is sure to find
Leatherbound eyelids woven spine of deceit
Sifting through the contents for clarity
System of lies so contrived sewn at the seam
Turn the page find there’s nothing to be seen
I’ve laid my path out of dust and bones
I’ve shifted through the dirt and through the snow
Surpassing even the event horizon
When did I forget that all things grow
Ascension deception the weight of acceptance I feel tearing at my insides
Repeating omissions the pages were scripted veracity fading in time
I’ve laid my path out of dust and bones
I’ve shifted through the dirt and through the snow
Surpassing even the event horizon
When did I forget that all things grow
I’ve laid my path out of dust and bones
I’ve shifted through the dirt and through the snow
Surpassing even the event horizon
When did I forget that all things grow
I close my eyes
The fate of a martyr is so undeserved
