The Sovereign Pressure


The Sovereign pressure of disaster
		Impending fate by the hours.
Polaris, Earthquake, Windfall
		Settings of Grandeur and charm.

Willingness to mediate love's opening battle,
		The gambit of failing loyalty,
	Crushed to the pulp
		By ceaseless, senseless vibrations.

The gentle beating of wings on the glass,
		The fresh smell of the dew.
	The morning sunlight, refreshingly smiling
		In the eyes of my love.

Hope, eternal hope, springing ever
		A ministry of freshness and grace.
	Escape from reality, escape from belief
		Saved from death by the shadow.

Shadows of fear, helping, intriguing
		Falling from stars of grace,
	Safety in numbers, safety in all
		Unbending, inseparable.

Together again on a time far away.
		Willingness to seem safe again,
	Importance in a relationship
		To further mankind.
