Until I finally came.


I wish this thing would go away,

So I didn’t want to cry.

For being the only cyclops,

Without only one eye....

The touch of sun within the storm,

To reach like fears defied.


Branches spread, out to reach,

Their hands will be entwine.

To embrace their love, to beseech,

Their brethren in time.


From high to lo...
