Life Measures
In world, I breathe, measure of own
age
An ageless smile, and one empty face
Spectacles of ponds, and that far
desert
Where trust and tale have been
divided
And burning chapters in front of my
eyes
Half book for hell, half for heaven
lies
Its patience is dream and power is
promise
Perpetual defeat and soldier across
battle
Lasted enough to fight, a fight to
ease battle
To win something, someone, not proofed
Until sleeping town, a soul, awakes on
a faith
Spring after autumn, and life after
death
A blackboard of dreams, colored chalks
Endless stories, some broke and some
stay
Flying hearts, and bones in sand one
day
That’s a fable, a fairy, a root of
mystery,
Countless curtains, every page, every
hour
The secret morning after evening of
war
Every heart translated letters of life
Characters of every way, and that
truth
Wrote every time a new story, stood
alone
Before a shattered and scattered
breath
After broken dreams, a passionate cry
The lord would
understand to live and die
