• You stand within me, tall, erect, powerful
    And act as a beacon for all that encompasses my will
    It is your light that shines through
    And my eyes glow with the beauty of your divine prowess

    My light is but a glimpse, a deep reflection
    Which is lost in the passing shade of time
    The illusion persists and with it, obscurity
    As all things fall and pass within a great deluge

    But things change as they never do
    As rigid as concrete is the unchanging metamorphosis
    And as we arise to the conclusion we insist
    We persist as the ever after and the now

    You are the forever, the unchanging
    And I shall forever exist as a part of thee
    But my eyes, too, shall shallow and rot
    As the festering begins as a part of the cycle

    Life, death and rebirth
    As a part of the forever

    The serpent stands tall within us
    And as one we rise from the vessel

    Transcendance, transformation

    We are, you shall
    I am
