The Only Gift I Know

Hollow Enigma

I was founded and bounded in my flesh held and locked in the eternity that is insanity.
I cowered in the sympathy and empathy from of everyone hopeless humanity.
Hopeless look to find a hope and I closed my eyes around every calamity

Never will I follow in gods worship or hope for gifts from divine.
But only ask to never whisper a change what makes life sublime.
Do not remove anything that would cover how you shine.

If every demon is to an angel and we all have our endings.
Then the moon shines above so the world can see her ascending.
Every saint and every single vanity, learn a love that is unending.

I have seen what creates the start of life in their eyes.
The connecting of worlds by her hands as ties.
Felt the fear like the wind of the oceans deafening cries.

I can’t just look up and have hope from the blue above.
Move to a monastery and fit as a holy glove.
But as I sleep I keep a smile that exists from love.
