It was but a resigned breath away
The sweet release
The abysmal drop
The fear of mankind
The end of fear
The end of sorrow
Of hunger and pain
Of The Disease
But I fought it
The easy way out
To live
When freedom was a breath away
Ignorance is bliss
For there is a glimpse of hope
Even in this abyss
That the torture will never end
For the truth shall set us free
So we shackle ourselves to it
How can you heal without reprieve
When the scars of judgement never fade
Never to rest
Your heart never stops
For fear keeps it racing
In defiance of the truth
For when the bell tolls
With a resounding crack
When the cool crisp water
Fills your lungs
When the warm pool around you
Is your own blood
When the memories begin to fade
When hope is replaced with reality
When the world dissolves before your eyes
Into a field of ash
Then is when you will understand
The blessing of death
Paradox
