Sage words of someone
so frail yet so tall tell me
how nice will it be
if I know what's waiting
for me at the end

Will it be glory?
A love everlasting and
one to always choose me?
—I look up to the sky
expecting the stars
to guide my journey

Safe cords of something
so brittle yet so enduring
held me through trying times
and upheavals unseen
—they told me how the end
could look like when I finally
found what I thought
I am looking for

Will it be a story fulfilled?
A sky full of fire and passion
burning without turning
my skin to ashes?
—I smile at the heavens
expecting the sun and moon
to keep me afloat in the sea
of dreaming and wishes

Caged time of somewhen
so short yet so deathly
never-ending keep me
from seeing what
the end looked like
but a little more beating
—a little more push into the
slogging mud beneath our feet—
a little more dying on
a bed of thorns and knives 
and a little more kneeling over
salty sand and tears
—I started to know, just enough,
how it's all going to end
for me and for us
