Watching you,
but not questioning,
only seeing,
hoping,
pleading with my eyes
that
yours will open.
You’ve been down so long,
I was just a boy,
and if you woke up
now,
there would be
a man before you.
Struggle up
from your slumber
and hear the rumble.
The Earth complains,
and the sky
curses with thunder.
I’ve been watching you
now,
for so long
my bones are showing.
Won’t you wake up
and come
save your loved ones,
and kill the questioners.
Never asked you
for much, but I’m asking now.
My time’s up.
Been watching you,
won’t you wake up?
Come get your son,
and your daughter,
before the world ends.
Come save us,
before we are all
consumed in ashes.
Break through the coma,
the comfort,
the unconsciousness of feeling.
Awake and join us
in our ultimate revealing.
Shake off
the scales
from your eyes,
father
and
come save
your family.
They have been watching,
and dying
ever since
you left them.
It’s time to wake up,
now.
It’ll be upon us soon.
