Warrior's Trance
Completely seared are the cornea
From looking at the Sun
I no longer believe,
And so burns this ball of gas
I lift up my hands
To shield my eyes
Yet they refuse to see
Why is it this warrior’s dance
Slows to a methodical strut
Leading to the celebration
Of Life and Death
There is an image betwixt,
There is a message between,
And the Spiral Dance continues
As the drumbeat matches my heart
This blind warrior sees more
Than when he roamed the seas
Invading minds and hearts
Leaving rubble in his wake
This warrior feels more
Than when he brought about Life
Not knowing what to do
In front of such adoring eyes
This warrior has experienced more
Than when he travelled the world
Ignoring all within his path
This warrior may look blind
This warrior may be scarred
This warrior may feel his chains
But these experiences have freed me.
