Lock and Key

(collab of Chameleon, MDT and Prophet)


Heading into the darkness
seeking the unknown

Finding monsters
and secret enemies
hidden there---

Turned away
for nightmares
in my path
block
the way,

and turn me around
to gain more
life experience

Standing tall
forward I move
with shadow in pursuit

My past follows me
through doubt and fear
as the present cuts my life in two

Separated from what was
abiding in what is
focusing on what can be

In space
empty of light
I am my own beacon of hope

I journey to where
the world isn't grey
to where colors intertwine

I seek a place of freedom
an escape from the bonds
that hold me fast

I travel distances
to lose myself in dreams
and bathe in rainbows

I cover in delight of colors
then swim in cosmic glee
and bask in radiance of light in me

but to appreciate the light
I must embrace the dark
and realize, fight and embark

on a pilgrimage to the universe's edge
and there lies the key
to the echo of a cosmic pledge

the wavelengths of that eternal sound
vibrate the simplest compound
of matter, time and space

to rearrange and create
all that is known
so I tune into the frequency

and become ecstatically connected
to all existence in light and darkness
to become the beginning and the end
