• sleeping among blue shadows
    listening to the flutter of wings
    a light voice called from across the world
    singing an inaudible hymn
    opening a tired eye
    just in time to see
    a match fall from the hand of God
    and stretch across the sable sky
    sleep was suddenly banished from my eyes
    Running through the forest
    dead with fall
    with silent feet
    even in the golden leaves
    shedding my sorrows with every step
    setting off some place faraway
    breathing the scent of hope
    stronger now than ever
    only I know where the trail leads
    following a lonely light
    thought the moonlight woods
    to the source of my dreams
    the world may slip away into darkness
    it might already be gone
    I don’t really care
    racing to the sacred temple
    that’s been abandoned
    a thousand summer nights ago
    Feeling the heat on my outstretched hands
    in that one moment
    the darkness of the era
    broke into dawn
    miracles do happen, however many times
