We throw ourselves
Like rocks against the heavens
To call to us attention
And set our sights for higher ground
Weaved within the nervous system
Of the blood to devote
We keep the dormant fragments
Of self destructive code
Into the emptiness
Where fires cannot feed
No way to hold
A burden of another name
We nod at each other
From across the open plain grave
And go to memories
To visit our own lives
You carry my life
Inside you my only witness
We hide in the bodies of greater beings
Together as one through endless trials
Into the emptiness
Where fires cannot feed
No way to hold
The burden of love, alive
