Random Poem:

Tread Now Along With Us
lionheart

Open your eyes, young one.
 1
 
 
The world no longer melts, but rather
 2
cascades with
 3
vibrant energy as an organic,
 4
lively scent steals through the
 5
midday air.
 6
 
 
There is not yet a need to weep,
 7
my son; for through
 8
daybreak and nightfall, the
 9
tides yet turn.
 10
 
 
Therefore, hasten not to disregard what
 11
makes your sadness so, and stand
 12
willingly to battle as the
 13
Devil’s plundering daemons seek to
 14
further deepen your wounds.
 15
 
 
Collect your sorrow,
 16
dear child, and
 17
tread now along with us…
 18
along this path, together.
