AGONY RELEASED
Open wings to the
sky
Burnt from embers
What wind remembers
The gust can't deny
Open your hands
Receive my gift
Untie the binds
Your scars I lift
On smoldering coals
I will kneel
For your agony
I can steal
Of your ashes
I paint my face
Furious memory
Is mine to erase
Obstruction released
So feel my breath
Warmed of peace...
Your bloody tears
I have ceased.
