I Can See the Kingdom

Tristan Robert Lange


Notice of absence from Tristan Robert Lange
Life is full of seasons. This is a season of transition for me, where I will be moving with my family to a new location. As such, with much logistics to consider, I am doing my best to keep up. Please know if I accidentally don't respond, it is not because I am ghosting or becoming distant. Once things settle after the move, I am sure life will return to some normalcy. In the meantime, and always:

Read 👓, Write ✍️, Rise 🌅, Realize 🤯.

Tristan 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
So you think you know me?  
The wildfire ablaze  
Needs immediate action.  
 
But I can see the Kingdom.  
You strip me down naked  
You lacerate my truth.  
But I can see the Kingdom.  
 
You pull out the lasher  
You intend to intimidate.  
But I can see the Kingdom.  
 
Human death sticks stare  
At me with judgment.  
But I can see the Kingdom.  
 
They think they can see  
Eternal truths on paper.  
But I can see the Kingdom.  
 
They sentence me to hell,  
To the lurid shores of refuse  
Housing its scornful base,  
But I can see the Kingdom.  
 
Help me! Save me  
With your transient care.  
Because I can see the Kingdom.  
 
Show me your best,  
Wall me in stone torment,  
But I can see the Kingdom.  
 
Stain my name  
And play the game  
You're never going to tame,  
Because I can see the Kingdom.
