fish eye

Look into the eye of the dying fish
where life is golden and tragedy black
push back youthful thoughts of forever more
and watch as reality crashes on peaceful shores

Struggling valiantly against current and time ;fate creeping slowly through shrinking waters
bringing you closer to your place of birth
where you find your final measure and worth

Circling carrion cast shadows of doubt
on withering skin and stiff bone beneath flesh
You shall not pass!You shall not pass!
the eery chants of a gathering mass

Memory lends old passion grave strength
like wind to sail you carve the waves
until you reach your divine destination
your only dream is of re-incarnation
