Monuments, Monoliths
They call me a man A monument A dreamer An embodiment Of hope for those Who seek light When misery consumes The radiance of this world Countenance contends mass exodus Blot out the rays from the stars A beacon shines out shimmering brilliance A pillar of light to Guide the lost Back home Drive the sick Into healing arms Bring the weary Back from the brink

Luminescent orbs had kept us On course but Gnarled roots then lead us astray Their wisdom filled us with The strength to carry on But twisted tongues spat Poisonous words and the poison Took kindly to our veins A plague upon us all Standing on the shoulders of titans Lofty perch bears witness to travesty Stoney eyes gaze on Shadows encroach by the second Casting a dim light upon us Quickly fading wavering and weak Lay your weary head upon my hands This sickness stakes its claims On the lives of lesser men O dwindling light resurge Tired limbs begin to wither and Begin to quiver under the weight of The push and pull and sway of the storm Corrupted words had gotten the best of her Betrayal committed amongst the roots and leaves Once viewed as a savior, this man is but a ruse Leaving behind too many traces of his infidelity Live and die on this day

They weighed our hearts on sin alone A transformation that can never be undone Their soles will never again grace the waves The punishment borne by Callisto and her cub You took The light from the stars And soon The sun will follow Water would douse the fire In their hearts But the first fire is Flickering Tendrils of light from the Sky reach down Water to drown out the Hope they had Clouds swept in to make the Light recede Hurried off and kept at bay Scorned and betrayed by those in who They placed their trust A trust misplaced Amber eyes and claws Then the hunter Pierced a poison arrow Through the coat of fur and flesh They were scorned and left on their own Temet nosce, ursidae

Be Wary of those That watch with malevolent Eyes Your every move Locked in Their Sights Their gaze at your Back Is Never-ending Do you feel it They are watching Do you feel it They are watching Do You sense that they Are upon us They are all-seeing They are plotting Do you feel it They are watching Do you feel it They are here with us now A figure stands Tall above The grain waves Piercing rays from Sun reach surface Rips hope From flesh And last lingerings of love From your bleak and empty heart We shield our eyes That we might see No features form Only broken limbs and blood Our Actions Beneath the Weight of idle hands Heavy like stones Immovable and dense Unable to escape Thousands of eyes are observing Do you feel it They are here with us now

The dreamer closes it's eyes, it's mind The void consumes the stars Our monuments, and earth crumble And turn to dust As above, so below I am the dreamer I am the dream

Alone and adrift in the sea of stars Outcast and forgotten by all Nothing more than a distant memory This nameless wanderer lashes out In a desperate attempt to be remembered As he descends, fire rains down Darkness consumes, a cry rings out, "Is this the end? This is the end..."

The monolith rises Stretches far and wide into the sky Connecting the earth with the clouds Unifying stone mass extends into the expanse

The city in the sky Is buried beneath a fog If we could pierce a light Through the clouds we would see Its citizens weep But as time wanes Everything is lost Within the wispy clutches And subtle sullied breaths Of the world above The city in the sky is left to Degenerate decay divide A plague of gods and men Submit surrender succumb Stars become a testament to their collapse Accept acquiesce allow Wraiths will writhe in the sky As times of yore are written Accented by gaseous light-bearing orbs In the city in the sky
