Discard

ill forsaken shadows
open the eyes, hear
my tender silent cries

i see the radiance
i feel its warmth
pass through me

i can not contain it
i discard, i discard

i see as if lower then
i bend down and pledge
that i may never sit
or pray again, if you
accept me here and now

failed ode to the discard,
of ego, ever present it
whispers and begs to stay

i do not want you, i do
not want you, the
door swings open,
the keys are left in
the lock, accept it

accept it, you are
not all that lost

just off the clock
