Within two worlds
|
Wind carries the sand
|
Of a desert of emotions
|
Unto tear stained cheeks
|
Skin seared by the power
|
Of oblivious stars
|
He cries... shedding tears... though none are left
|
They cry... golden tears... diamonds glistening
|
Solace found underneath a palm
|
Brushing the burning void away
|
The jewels of their emotions
|
Are left abandoned in the sand
|
As they face one another
|
In a dimensional confrontation
|
Twin images etched in glass
|
And the backdrop of the cosmos
|
The stars disregard
|
His pain laid flat
|
Against the pane
|
He cries... shedding tears... though none are left
|
They cry... golden tears... vagabonds in the sand
|
The scream echoes silent
|
Within a world forever deaf
|
He sees within the other
|
Reality's reflection surreal
|
And as the bright stars arch
|
The power of the palm grows
|
Extinguishing his silent partner
|
And his phantom world
|
In contrary motion
|
He raises his frame
|
As the other falls...
|
Shattering upon the barren earth's kiss
|
Like a thousand sapphires
|
Reflecting the light of the stars
|
Flung against the night's canopy
|
And his end becomes clear
|
In rippling pools of a desert oasis...
|
Transcend the line drawn in the sand
|
By the remnants of his twin
|
Orphan the sanctity of the palm
|
And eschew the safety of its shadow
|
