The one who waits
The one who stands
In the dark and waits
Vague black stare
That insanity satiates
Eternal and not
In time and turmoil
We overtook space
And began to recoil
Sanity sends out a wave
Listless as the eternal sun
Bliss awaits a yearning still
Into the night as time has spun
God save me, from these
Demons in the night
Save the boy, bidding inside
Curled out of sight
For the one who waits
With a stretched out hand
Gives voices within a mind
Like tiny grains of sand
