Bewildered at life

I look at myself

When shall I cross

This moment despair

Hate fills my body

Wretched design

No fuel to continue

Empty on air

This passage I ponder

Shall it bring light?

Or darkness of mind

Hollow I drift

My conscious betrays me

Ode to the night

For glory I’m sure

Will bring my last wish

An angel approaches

States for the record

My name to me thrice

Ensuring it’s I

This path that I seek

Will you acknowledge

Take heed of my movement

No longer to hide

Softly but stern

I hear the real message

It’s humbleness speak

Direct without candor

My child I’ve waited

This moment to come

I’ve watched every step

Viewed it with granduer

This trial of greatness

You’ve lost many battles

Succumb to false prophets

Yet you describe

One among many

Alert to the notion

That money will lead

The mind to deny

Treasure your family

Let no one inscribe

A life without you

For you will not part

Away from this moment

Away from this world

Yes son it’s an honor

To bleed your new heart
