BREAKING OF THE GLASS

BREAKING OF THE GLASS

Poem By: Dr. Billy Alsbrooks 

___________________________________

The glass breaks 

I sit here beyond the shadows wondering when I’ll awake

When will the storm reveal her name to me?

I threaten to steal her sky 

To rob her of all her meaning 

Tell me now what I came to know 

Reveal the God in me

The glass breaks 

I climb behind the clouds of heaven pondering the meaning of life

When will the weather bow to me?

I promise to ravish her innocence

To rob her of all her glory

Tell me now what I came to know

Reveal the glory in me

The glass breaks 

I dive deep into the crevices of Mother Earth seeking the way to eternity

When will the sage of this realm answer me?

I vow to destroy my own memory

To rob myself of all limitation 

Tell me now what I came to know

Reveal the power in me

The glass breaks 

I swim through the oceans of madness searching for immortality

When will the wisdom of old become me?

I murder the learned ways of ignorance 

To rob her of her seductive ways

Tell me now what I came to know 

Reveal the secret in me

___________________________________

The glass breaks 

I run through the desert of illusion panting for water 

When will the dry barren soil quench my thirst?

I penetrate the light her sun brings 

To rob her of the scared knowledge 

Tell me now what I came to know

Reveal the truth in me

Breaking of the glass…
