WIDE AWAKE

Reflected and Refractured in the Shade
L.A. Miahi 2013

tis an impass that appears/whenever I assume

I walk into the lighted stairs/to climb upon the moon....

I take the motion of this world/to act upon my own

I strip the layers of a pearl/ back to the scraped out bone....

I make this feeling of desire/ to hold back stitches deep

I weep upon the funeral pyre/ where I will fall asleep....

there is no need to carry on/ there is no need to act

for I have covered and have won/ an angels sacred pact....

I embrace this wonder that is here/ I live within my room

dancing in a pit of despair/ to an opera singing tune....

where there is end therefore is life/ a cycle of release

I offer up my soul of strife/ to garner up all peace....

I follow all who lead the way/ until tis mine to take

then I shall wait and make you pay/ back to being wide awake......
