The subliminal walks of daily medication to soothe and restore vital connections
Are held in Hope,as survival of another mind's pure brilliance fades in the gasp
Of a shared milestone before eternal night.
And the brilliance emanates from heart resounding inspiration as words live on
And flesh falls away.
For the ink to dry and the soul to never raise voice is the slumber sought by torment,
As from the depths of human misunderstanding the earth gives forth a gift of recognition
From a final resting place, and those from a place of knowing,
Smile.

A Gift

Creativity hangs in perfect balance between the next day and no more,
The subliminal walks of daily medication to soothe and restore vital connections
Are held in Hope,as survival of another mind's pure brilliance fades in the gasp
Of a shared milestone before eternal night.
And the brilliance emanates from heart resounding inspiration as words live on
And flesh falls away.
For the ink to dry and the soul to never raise voice is the slumber sought by torment,
As from the depths of human misunderstanding the earth gives forth a gift of recognition
From a final resting place, and those from a place of knowing,
Smile.
