The Heaven That Waits

Past the whiteness and into the pupil

I find only death and the black beyond

An obsidian I fold into with ease

I’m damned to bleed away and fall forever into infinity

But deep in the center

Is a heart that belies the darkness

A pool with endless waves of innocence

Holding colors that reflect something lost inside me

I hear the oceanic whisper amongst my mortal consumption

So soft and yearning, it calls me tender

And I’m inspired now to dredge the tar

And conquer the thickness between us

I want to find solace from the nightmare

I want the Heaven that waits in the water
