NIOBE

I fell into the sea of righteous men

but it was all a dream

 

I stepped into a room of shapeless fear

but it wasn’t a dream

 

I walk to the morning sun

let the light come

 

I’ve held my head high

now here I lie

I let the life run

 

where are you, my pale one?

don’t stray

with all the words unspoken

all our dreams are broken

but I’m here with my doors and soul wide open

 

where are you, my pale one?

don’t stray
