Rift

Last night, in the moments my thoughts were adrift And coasting a terrace, approaching a rift Through which I could spy several glimpses beneath Of the darkness, the light from above could not reach I spied wings of reason, herself taking flight And upon yonder precipice saw her alight And glared back at me one last look of dismay As if she were the last one, she thought I'd betray So much better I said to myself And drawing quite close to the top of the shelf I struggled with destiny upon the ledge And gasped when defeated, he slipped off the edge And silence contagious in moments like these Consumed me and strengthened my will to appease The pa*sion that sparked me one terrible night And shocked and persuaded my soul to ignite So much better, I said to myself And drawing quite close to the top of the shelf I struggled with destiny upon the ledge And gasped when defeated, he slipped off the edge And silence contagious in moments like these Consume me and strengthen my will to appease The pa*sion that sparked me one terrible night (And shocked and persuaded my soul to ignite) And shocked and persuaded my soul to ignite And shocked and persuaded my soul to ignite And shocked and persuaded my soul to ignite And shocked and persuaded my soul to ignite
