Erasing the Twilight
................
I have drank all their poisons
and my blood is soiled and silent.
I sit here as they erase the twilight
And I know..that there is no paradise.
That paradise was lost when it was created in the mind.
A cry in the dark.
I know now that peace does not exist,
that this word formed itself on the lips of a solider.
And that love can never be felt,
unless it is stitching together a broken heart.
Know that I find no comfort on Your Bench,
Only a minor relief in the Cross of Your arms..
as I shed silent tears into a burning heart.
You nailed me down
so that no one else will.
Taught me to love myself only when You do.
But know this:
When I feel the pain,
Ill make sure You feel it too.
