~Epiphany~

Of all things bent and broken
And things stolen without token
Speak the heart of all unspoken
Dare to live a lie unbroken

Here the shadows of silence dwell
Deep within the jungles of hell
When all the world began its fall
In a time when greed ruled it all

In this light casting such a shadow
From a prayer desperate for the morrow
Behind a smile which likes to play
Told by eyes that speak of what you long to say

And so as I mourn in tears
Of the things distant and near
As my mind floods the greatest sea
Just as the world had encumbered me

I sit in this dwelling built of despair
When all along I was never truly there
And as my mind left to wander
My guilt sunk my heart to a weeping slumber

So as I scream without a sound
I lose sight of all and lose myself
But every time I try to make it right
It feels so wrong although my reason is justified

And so a question burdens me
As my lungs become filled with the sea
Is this all I was meant to be
Or is this just an epiphany?
