The other side

So near yet poles apart 

The other side how far ? 

Road so smooth cum rough 

Full of the tales of yesterday’s failures not tomorrow’s success 

My path lighted by my thoughts 

Extinguished by the darkness seemingly on the other side 

The other side 

The divide I dare not 

Like a pendulum whose peace is troubled 

My thoughts wandering like a floating carcasses 

Preyed upon by the Ravens on the other side 

Ravens whose predatory instincts is matched by no other on this side of the fence 

Yet ever present to devour them who dare 

The other side 

The scenes are chaotic but returning is not an option echoes of terror filled the air 

My heart is fainting 

Strength failing 

Yet the one who said to wait at the other side haven’t changed his course 

The assailing ship is perturbed the water wobbles 

Her misery is compounded by the contrary wind taking side with them at

The other side 

Through it all my boat sailed afloat 

Fishermen fret 

Tax collector wailed 

The storm raged 

Judas reached for the treasury 

Alas a ghost they cried 

Peter walking on the sea 

The Ravens preyed on but 

He that said to wait at the other side had peace enough to spare for the other side is just within
