I, Metamorphosis

I am metamorphosis
Gazing at its own dance
Heading out of the night
Single willed
And unleashed

At The Gates

and all the times i yelled
at the gates of heaven
why was freedom withheld
why were no signs given

For All That Is Amiss

flying over abyss
soaring above the night
if you blow me a kiss
i will bring you sunlight
for all that is amiss
some things are always right
and to enjoy their bliss
we will keep up the fight

At The Heart Of Despair

that unscheduled passage
through the echo chamber
where worshippers of night
stare at a shrine to gloom
was not meant as umbrage
nor as some forced labour
but so you would yield light
straight in the eyes of doom
that sudden sommation
into the court of pain
where judges of conduct
wield a ruthless hammer
was no condemnation
nor a mark of disdain
but so you could deduct
how hurt signals error
that guided excursion
up the stream of hardship
where the specters of fail
inhabit every reef
was not destination
nor meant to sink your ship
but so joy could prevail
still in the fount of grief
that unplanned adventure
round the deep pits of hell
where the womb of all fear
has constructed her lair
was never to censure
nor fealty compel
but so your faith shone clear
at the heart of despair
