✨ For this you’ve striven Daring, to fail:
Your sky is riven
Like a tearing veil.
For this, you’ve wasted Wings of your youth;
Divined, and tasted Bitter springs of truth.
From sand unslakèd Twisted strong cords,
And wandering naked Among trysted swords.
There’s a word unspoken,
A knot untied.
Whatever is broken
The earth may hide.
The road was jagged
Over sharp stones:
Your body’s too ragged
To cover your bones.
The wind scatters
Tears upon the dust; Your soul’s in tatters Where the spears thrust.
