Lichen

Suffering
Is the only
Noble way
Mark the lines
Of a lichen
Covered ego

Cast a shadow
That follows us home
A flash of light
Scatters hope
Find what we need
In the bottom of a well
Descend the winding stairs
Not a being to tell

Face to face
With eternity
What I feel
Is draped in certainty

Entangled in strength
Is a thread of spite
And what road you take
Won't affect mine
Im at the bottom of the pit
But i see myself win
Every choice made
Covered in sin
