We Are Here (Revelations-COTS)

(Captured at 7:10am on 06-28-23)    
     
Until the end of time        
Thy energy of the heart the Sun bows        
Unto the spirit of the animal that surfaces in society        
Where humans interchange to beast        
In the nature of death or dishonor        
Feet of bravery seeking higher destiny        
The comfort of divine peace        
Onto the air echoes the drums of war’s silence        
The jungle where the mighty beast roars        
Mute to the minds of crying souls        
Opened eyes to the state of reality        
Closed minds to what was, and would never be again        
Lives forever tattered in the abyss of rumple        
The house of our souls        
Raising our arms in defiance        
Voices slaughtered in the shadows of our tears        
Forgotten names swaying on the stench of the wind        
Death welcoming the sunrise        
Bloody silhouettes marked in shallow graves        
Limbs stacking to the horse's bridle        
Upon the earth a corpse speaks        
Its environmental truth laid strew        
Reminisce of our fallen hopes        
Deferred in the reality of our dreams        
We toll to the sweat of our brow        
Marching to infiltrate the white flag        
Lost causes we give of ourselves        
In shallow graves        
That spirit of pyre our livelihood now makes        
Surrender we not        
Generations once journeyed upon the soil        
We are the scrolls of denied salvation        
Blown away in the strike of wars        
No political treaty as our hearts we hang heavily        
Freedom rings true in the hidden valley of yesterday        
Can we hear it, can we feel it        
Let our hungry mouth taste the victory        
In the calling of night        
Dreams of warmthness in peace        
Has been devoured        
        
Make peace not war

Hope is like the sun, which, as we journey toward it, casts the shadow of our burden behind us.
