Temple

From my creator, I was created!

From my creator, I was created!

From my creator, I was created!

Out of the earth
Rains from the sky
Thy vessel of clay is a temple
I've decorated my soul
Walls etched In ink like hieroglyphs
Pagoda reaching farther than clouds
To a place I was once so long ago
In the garden of eden surrounded by dandelion milk and butterflies, whence I was stitched
Before embedded in that secret place swaddled in placebo

You led me on with dying breath
Drum within my chest
Beating beneath my ribs
Pilot ignited, spark that fills my dark depths
Life that rides upon my eyes
Spirit dances, singing hymns
I will wander under my sign
Where stars are aligned
Side by side, comraderer of thy soul
Keeps me from ebbs of circumstances and difficulties trying to drown me
I was made to stumble and fall to the end of my time
Sheilding me with wings overcoming adversities

I'll wait for you till my last sunset of Apollo or on the rise of Artemis waxing cresent
Till the day I die taking with me nothing but all my blessings and wrongs
Leaving here in hopes with no regrets

Tears will fall like that from grace
Back into the sky
Clay returns to earth, dust in the wind
Back into thy makers hands

To my creator, in which I was made
To my creator, in which I was made
To my creator, in which I was made
