Yonder lie time and duration
Cast into exile from the soul -
Adrift between the two most violent storms of god's divine bestowal
(Merely a century sufficed to douse this soul in earthen lie)
No light awaits beyond the realm where our creation goes to die
In coiling halls of yesterday
Ruled kingdom of mortal dismay -
(Born the virgin's son, through a kingdom come)
Now providing the echelon for life to ascend
Baptized, cleansed of death's entropy, gifted opiate amnesty
Yet the soul and the flame burn one in the same
Prophesied lie the prophecies, the cycle has come to an end
For every lifetime shall pass beyond this world-dividing line
(Where sands of time) divide the soul and mind
Where heart's desires unwind, die and align
Should one conform to their design
When left behind, they surely find
No god takes soul less-than divine
Yonder lie fruits of creation -
Out of reach for defiled heart
Unborn, inversion -
Worth more than to stand where a life has taken part
What's born as mortal
Shall indeed rot
Unbroken cycle
To be a man is to desire to be what a man is not
For every lifetime shall pass beyond this world-dividing line
(Where sands of time) divide the soul and mind
Where heart's desires unwind, die and align
Should one try to overcome design
Peering behind, they surely find
Our god finds soul less than divine
