Broken

That is

A small piece of the original whole

I fall deep into the void

I stand tall

I held fire

Flickering in the moonlight

The flame rose high into the night sky

Illuminating the lost world below

All shadows, all darkness gone

All cares and misdeeds shown

Because I held fire, flickering in the moonlight

This world is broken

A shadow of the greatness it once was

Now, cares and kindness are hidden

Misdeeds and evil forgiven

Shadows, darkness, greater than the light

I held fire, flickering in the moonlight

Someday we may fine

The glue, the tape, the fixer upper

Was right in front of us

I held fire flickering in the moonlight

I held it high above my head

Illuminating the beauty, the cruelty

Of the natural world 

Someday, we may be united once again

Though it seems impossible

Perhaps if we work together

And uncover the real problems

We will be as amazing as we once were

Maybe all it will take is me

Holding fire, letting it rage and light up the night sky
