Right now you can't see the end.
Stoic in the mids of turmoil.
Resigned to shrink away.
Content to retreat.
Content to hide in your safe place.
Protest the loss.
And mourn the casualties.
Look at the wreckage,
And understand what it means.
When the walls collapse.
Your will to fight has been surpa**ed.
You're on your knees again.
Sift through the layers.
The shattered remains of your broken dreams.
The life you once longed for.
Face up to devastation.
Ignore the urge to hide.
Seek revelation.
Inspired in all the anguish.
Recount the cost.
Knowledge through suffering.
No easy lessons.
Are learned when you cross the valley.
Draw out a hard line,
You've got to follow the hard line.
A marker that shows the way.
And through this.
Draw out a hard line.
A future that can't be seen from
Where you are.
