For a while I traveled
undirected
misdirected
sparks of truth remained

A riverman treading a sea of twisted lies
I die
I die
Losing sanity unto another life, greater sanity

This world is a way with shifting appeal
to make a new deal
a seal
a seal
of many more twisted lies

Before light is revealed in negative space
One has to fall
face to face
with darkness

And out of its relief
Love is the promise
that will stay
it will stay amidst deepest grief

And life will live another day
to beget good or evil
We have choices
and there will be another day.

Pax.
