Humanity and Love

[j.man]

Interested to see how people interpret this:

 

What are we to conceive as a new light being born?

As a beautiful spirit encumbered with adorn?

An aura of pedals emitting from each tiny step we take

The innocence of a gaze lighting paths no darkness can forsake

Devolution from the evolution

Our own freedom no longer the solution

Our maturity breeds a sympathy of contempt

A love lacking solace, of which few are exempt

Ideals exceeding our control

Your independence is now null

I will care for you as you do not

I will carry the flag where those you've loved once fought

In your name, the flashes I ignite will light the night

Their skins will burn and melt, until they no longer fight

You will see my smile, and you will know I am right

This is as you would like, the proof is in my might

Retract from me your hand, and present me your pain

I will heal your wounds with the blood of the slain

Cry not for your losses, nor the conflict you endure

Stand behind me, your safety is mine to procure

The shadow of my wings will keep you from harms way

While inside I die, my feathers taint, and float astray

The blood flows from my eyes

My screams distort my disguise

Your absent stare penetrates my heart

My emotion and conscience ripped apart

And I now know what is true

In that I will never be you

I painfully clench my hopes into dust

And leave my instruments to decay and rust

My love will remain

You and I never the same

I turn to fade, and allow you to rise

And afford you the trust real love should comprise

Unto you, I relinquish my control

And take in the freedom enjoyed long ago
