Axis.

Free 
Free, free
An open trapdoor
An open box of doves
A picture of words
I've always been an impressionist 

Because there we are
The world
He's dancing without a care in the backseat
To the song drumming in my chest
It takes me there, a snapshot
Of the young man throwing everything he meant into waves
Heartbeats
And will they never know?

All we are
Floating
Feeling
Trying

Will they never know
Darkness pulls
Another year
Smoke and ribbons
It hides 
But knows that I see it

Working so hard
To find welcome
They laugh
And she prays for me,
And she prays for me -

Everything

In love with life
Exhausted from living 

Everything 

Kyrie eleison

Two thousand and sixteen;

The Warrior.

Tonight I can see
That I'm climbing a ladder into the stars
Where they tell legends 
Of the Warrior.

It was the strongest deed ever known
The Warrior looked up towards the sky
Smiled
And walked in silence.

Tonight I can see
The beauty of lives in a tapestry
And I don't need to know
I just need to feel.
