Under siege of seismic tension

The words I failed to mention

My mind as my only companion

Commanding, condescending, ascending

pretending

The content of my canyon

I can yearn, you can learn

And when you come

To separate yourself

From this place

My bleeding heart

In a climactic battle

And a sound embrace

It’s you that’s causing all this tension

Beyond my comprehension

It’s wearisome,

Sometimes it dies, my bleeding body cries

Its impending ascension

Where there is rain

There is rumble

Where there is pain

You may stumble

Where there is rain

I remain

I am humble

Caught in a flash

By the light

In the middle

Of the night
