Let Go

Here I am Floating in an ocean Set sail by a passionate fury Pushed by lust to never look back Too far by my own power No turning back Drifting now in a vast puddle Of blood sacrifice Living by the breath of the Almighty Hope evaporated by the son Hope of land? Hope of relief? Direction unknown The stars hide from me The passion sapped from my heart But it continues beating To what end? By what means? Shall I paddle in the fog Only for more tears, more clear liquid Fathoms and fathoms of absolute Nothing Shall death rescue me? Will drowning release me? No Not even death's sweet embrace will gift me forgetting And so in limbo I wither At His mercy, I wait To be pushed down along To dine with Hades My enemy, my mind My own life a black mark Heaven cannot be granted To a broken and blackened heart So here I am Drifting endlessly for eternity Deciding desicions Whether the wind comes for me Or is just trying to get past me What do I want then? Poverty?  I cannot be To be rushed by like all those on land? I am free on this skiff No hurry or rush All roads lead to the same end Some are quicker than others Relax and enjoy the waves The salt of existence is not in the arriving But the leaving and never getting there American security is a easy to hold as water You spend your life with your head down Hands cupped in front of you Never noticing the death all around you The violin doesn't know what beauty it can make Until animations take up the bow and play Listen and let go To that water that will make your life dull For when you arrive with your water You will realize that you will be the only one to drink it Or maybe you won't Let the wind pass me I'm not afraid for Here I am Just as before                                     -Quasimodo
