i stared into the face of paradise.
it was beautiful.
the sensation wrapped meticulously
around my sensitive skin.
i floated there
in the paradoxically empty promised land.
a flame was in my heart
and i think
i may
have felt peace.


it was terrifying.
i was trapped in
elysium.
i am trapped here.
ironic - the one place in the underworld
where you are 'privileged'
with remembrance.

ironic.
ironic.

i walked the endless road
out of eternity
choosing finite sleep instead.

maybe we can never be ready
for the face of the golden sun.
or maybe
we have to earn our peace.
