It's All Fallen Apart by saminspires: 9:55pm On Mar 05, 2013
It's all fallen apart;
The stack of cards finally gone down;
Above it was, beneath it now is

Hmm, that which took time to stand, is falling apart


A river which once ran its course; now stagnant;
A fissure between the rock;
A crater amidst the mountain

Hmm, that which took strength to adhere, is tearing apart


Lava pouring from its melting;
Gas from this solid now fills the air;
That cool rock now sends out heat

Hmm, that which took time to stand, is falling apart



That which was sealed amidst the world;
That knitted in the world's presence;
Before that same world, it now looses its grip

Hmm, that which took strength to adhere, is tearing apart



With joy it once dined;
With strength it once vanquished every foe;
With love it brought forth seeds

Hmm, that which took time to stand, is falling apart



But those walls felt so smooth;
That heart pumped; forever and ever;
That marriage shone utopia

Hmm, that which took strength to adhere, is tearing apart



But those cracks on the wall looked obvious;
The stagnant river sure sent forth ammonia;
It was definitely perceptible; the heat from the rock

Hmm, that which took time to stand, is falling apart



But now the olives have gone wild;
Now the seeds stand against each other;
Now the root has lost firmness

Hmm, that which took strength to adhere, is tearing apart



Now the pillars stand trepid;
Now that joy tastes insipid;
Now the hearts wants a split

Hmm, that which took time to stand, is falling apart



Could this crater ever seal?
Could this river ever flow again?
Could this river taste utopia once more?


Could strength return to those limbs?
Could sight be dished to the blind once more?
Could this marriage stand again?



But I dare say,
Let the hearts co-join once again;
Let the seeds see no difference;
Let the river infuse currents like it once did

And that which took strength to adhere, would stand again



Let the swords be drawn again;
Let the foes feel its blade like before;
And let that marriage simply marry once again

And that which took time to stand, would definitely stand again


"Every marriage can work! So I believe"
