The Light We'll See

Dominating
The inequality
I made equal
A star shines for me
Frustrating
This causality
That the earth she did sing for me
Calculating
All the mass

This f*****g place, she makes no sense to me

In captivating

All the you and me

From the minds we've seen
I learn more from all the things not me
Alternating
In the in betweens

These are the same things we breath

Emancipating

All the evil things

This world its rarely friends with me

Ice skating
On the fate we made
I will see you when the cold takes hold
Hesitating
At the gates of ends

We will share what did bring us here

Commemorating

All the blood we lost 

Commiserating

All the things we left 

Articulating
All the things we feared

Into one light we'll see 

And We shall find release  

Before we die that day

Before we live forever

Reverberating

Until there is no sea 

Author's Note

Reviews

[John the Baptist]

This work is not connected to any particular religious body, but for some reason it reminds me of the Christian book of Revelation. The last line, "Until there is no more sea," is very close to a line from Revelation 21, which is concerned with a new heaven and a new earth, and the emergence of the New Jerusalem. In other words, the final triumph of good over evil. The poem itself seems to have a similar theme. The poet acknowledges the sufferings of the past while declaring that in the end, they will not matter. We will live forever in the one light. An uplifting piece.
