the dreams of my youth pound like rain upon my modern life
confusion dwells in the hidden guilt of yesterdays sins
no recent shades of tranquility will cloud this wisdom unearned
as i fall upon the realization that i've crossed into informed darkness
the tree of loving i planted in my innocence refuses to grow
i have become non-existent in this land of milk and honey
for this life is unworthy of the grace that flows from the tears
of angels who have nothing left but love to counter
the venom my plantings have borrowed into the ground
love and venom the image and the reflection
me

for this life is unworthy of the grace that flows from the tears
of angels who have nothing left but love to counter
the venom my plantings have borrowed into the ground
love and venom the image and the reflection
