The Last Mile?
The last mile?
Time after time, day after day,
my vision floats back to the horror called past.
The black light spreads, gives my scars away,
transformed to a cage; how long will it last?
The cell projects my flower, hopeless forlorn,
now in the shadow of your traitorous smile.
The life slowly fades, the flower is torn,
time is crawling to hell, this seems my last mile.
But when there is nothing but darkness upon me,
there is nothing left than turn and face you.
I should be light, a sunray must I be,
dissolve my cage, make my crumbled picture as new.
I'll be a bow of burning gold,
destroy my arrows of old desire,
I'll be a spear, old Clouds, unfold,
I'll burn our past in fire.
Note: Eerste drie regels van de laatste strofe geinspireerd door:
Blake, My Jeruzalem.
