When you speak of her, speak of her well
We've been teaching lessons to ourselves and other's
Stories of hell-
Relating to that situation can give you salvation in
Every aspect of loving
The telling of what lies ahead is something we cannot
Know

"Be prepared for the worst
And hang on to the last strand of thread that holds
Best."
A true test of compassion and humility on the final
Tier of a sun that sets west;
And, for a moment, casts a shadow that hides my love
For you;
All of your understanding in me and my patience for
You

Where were you when you arrived to destroy life?
Where will you be when you lose light?

"Be prepared for the worst
And hang on to the last strand of thread that holds

Best."
A true test of compassion and humility on the final
Tier of a sun that sets west
Fall to your knees, open your arms
Embrace; relate

"The easiest thing you can do in life is to hate."
I must admit that speaks volumes for me
But I still stay chained to every ounce of hostility
The teacher that we've found in a mother that has
Abandoned
The re-gifted dullness of a knife that can't cut
Only scratch and sadden
It's a burden strong enough to make our minds right or
Wrong;
A loss of grey area when all of your loved ones are
Gone
Living in fear of a cross that we bear
Most buried enough for more than a lifetime here
