awaiting to dream

a pot of wine to honour our youth, to life and death, of joy and grief

good and evil float in the dust, but what is white, and what is black?

honour befallen by injustice, promise yielding to sacrifice, resentment is unceasing and cruel

the nights are long, words still unsaid, patiently in the distance a flute plays

the moon is bright it sings, why dwell on past sadnesses, soar freely high and far

so be it then for I’ll awake, let’s not pretend to dream, and smile at the ever changing wind
