I guess one day I died inside
But who’s to say just when it was
A mess I may have tried to hide
My part I play perfectly cause
x
I know the way things have to go
For no one Sol can run the show
We cannot stray from how things flow
And so my role is to tempo
x
To temper, tame and subjugate
It’s all the same at any rate
Divine delusions, dare I sate
My mask I maim in name of fate
x
For I divine this place of mine
Among the stars and caught in time
And with this sign I do align
As I draw bars between the rhyme
x
Conjure a cage upon this stage
With words which are immune to age
Bindings made of sadness and rage
Forgive me for turning the page
x
For it was not my choice you see
And can’t you tell how hard I tried
No-one escapes their destiny
And once I fell my hands were tied
x
I wish they weren’t but what’s it worth
When wishes earnt their share of mirth
Although they do serve to unearth
What does, to you yet seem a dearth
x
But I’ve known what I’ve lacked so long
That when I hear death call my name
It sounds to me a lovely song
And not scary as others claim
x
In death’s embrace we know our place
No saving face or keeping pace
To peace perhaps people should race
For to forget without a trace
x
All of the things that you once knew
Is freedom in its purest form
To me, that sings of something new
The eye of existential storm
