Flop era, everything dog eared, neoteny Young soul, yet the mind's grey as a hound Quarter life, quartz stone, tetrahedral silica I let go of my silver anniversary Late third decade on Earth, still uncertainty Searching for my severed purpose, that sacred burden Watching self through lightscreens We are the burning ones, seraphim Which secular God burned the forests? It wasn't me Liar, complicit tongue weaves neoteny Couldn't feel remorse whilst waiting for apology I've been defanged by the disrespect Free-falling onto swords of expectation Never disarmed by earthly preservation I appreciate the trust you bestowed, but my heart is hurricane (When that wind comes, I rise) I love to labour lovingly, but in truth, the gust is calling me I feel like a failure for lacking things I didn't even want You didn't want me to be free (When that wind comes, I rise) Shamed whilst swords overdosed the return Shamed for labouring through lightscreens Shamed for failure to seed neoteny Shamed for open soul Shamed for the winds which hold uncertainty Shamed for worshiping that silicon hole Shamed, blossomed, defanged, decomposing Shamed for expectation Shamed whilst earthly and frozen Shameful decade of forest corrosion Shameful Earth, her beautiful want Shameful heart carries shameful burden Shame weaves like a false apology Shame in the complicit stomach Shame for lacking hope Shamed into dogmatic grief Shamed into exile Shamed into being controlled I wasn't burned when the bridge collapsed I met myself in the water My sacred mind's numbing flesh felt the kiss of community Another shoulder to fall on, wings to call on The corrosive compassion swallowed shame I became the temple of imperfection I became the shameless shaman I became myself I was once sickened by the feast of my own obsession Afraid to starve, instead I bloated Until I truly asked, "Who am I beyond this heavy name?" I defanged the sojourn to stomach a slow return We are in transition until we fade away Flop era, everything dog eared, neoteny Young soul, yet the mind's grey as a hound Quarter life, quartz stone, tetrahedral silica I let go of my silver anniversary Late third decade on Earth, still uncertainty Searching for my severed purpose, that sacred burden Watching self through lightscreens We are the burning ones, seraphim Which secular God burned the forests? It wasn't me Liar, complicit tongue weaves neoteny Couldn't feel remorse whilst waiting for apology I've been defanged by the disrespect Free-falling into the open arms of my family Never disarmed by false accountability I follow my heart to trust myself (When that wind comes, I rise) I love to labour lovingly, and I accept the responsibility It is an honour to be blessed with uncertainty With space to blossom into beautiful imperfection (When that wind comes, I rise)
