In The Blink Of An Eye

Born astonished
In the blink of an eye
A moment lived
A lifetime to the fullest
Misfortune between
First and last breath.

I paste hope and faith
On a grim face of fortune
Dipping my feet into the icy
Pool of an indifferent moon
I abhor the scorching of the sun
Waking to the sound of a weeping world
Fighting out of control forces.
