Here is the love
That makes me sing
That set my heart
To hammering
That tires my tongue
That leaves me mute
That surrenders me
To love’s pursuit
Here is the love
That makes me sing
That set my heart
To hammering
That tires my tongue
That leaves me mute
That surrenders me
To love’s pursuit
The Light Untame By Troydon Wainwright Here it is the light untame The single, simple naked flame It is alive but does not bleed It eats itself and plants no seed You can see its soul if you stare And watch its pulse flicker, flicker, flair
Beyond the Road By Troydon Wainwright I walked as far As the road goes Then beyond the road To who knows where It was easy to get lost there With paths or signs anywhere I had no map or stars for guide All I had were vistas wide And the open air And being the first To travel that way I had no one to follow But destiny
t Only Took A Moment By Troydon Wainwright It only took a moment For everything to change For the world to shed its skin And become something darker Before everything had it’s place Bad things happened But nothing that couldn’t be mended Or eventually forgotten The world remained safe And the bad things in it Only ever happened to people far away Then darkness came to my door And entered without knocking I begged it go But it stayed without moving Everything else had to rearrange around it Now I weep for what was For dreams that will stay dreams And for the world that ended When the real world entered
I Am By Troydon Wainwright I am here I have always been I am all you see yet never seen I am the word on the tips of your tongues I am the breath that fills your lungs I am the fire you feel when you kiss I am the pressure in the belly of the abyss I am the night when the day is done I am the heat in the heart of the sun I am the swells of oceans deep I am the joy that makes you weep I am the mouth that breathes the wind I am the truth no lie can rescind I am the flame no water can dim I am the call from deep within I am the first ray of breaking dawn I am the cry of a babe just born I am the view from the top of the hill I am the place you go to when still I am the moment when all becomes clear I am the love that brought you here I am the rain that quenches the fields I am the harvest that patience yields I am the roots that anchor the tree I am the end of infinity I am the struggle that makes you strong I am the will to carry on I am the light of every sun I am the one in everyone
Be There By Troydon Wainwright I wish I could be everywhere Every place where I have been Every place where I have loved I wish I could be with everyone Everyone who has won my heart And reminded me why it beats I wish I could be with everyone And still be here I am here for me But how I would love to be There for everyone
Discipline By Troydon Wainwright Whoever tells you it will be easy is lying Or has simply forgotten what it takes to get there The strength it takes is unimaginable No wonder so many give up And say it is impossible It takes so much more than time It takes the exclusion of everything That is not in its service It takes love too Because without love There will be no commitment It takes support beyond reason Many will think you insane Because you speak of a thing That has yet to exist And is only real inside your head Like a pregnant woman you must carry it You must endure labour Until it is out and crying in the world Where it will be embraced Because it is beautiful
Oh tortured flight, Oh heavy strain
Know my wind will blow again
Oh kingdom lost where once I reigned
My will unbroken no matter how strained
Oh starkest loss, Oh fall from grace
That brings the truth face to face
Oh darkest hour your shadow cast
I’ll rise in power, once you have pasted
Oh falter of fortune, come to be
In this abyss I find the depth of me
Oh twist of fate, Oh divine door
That brings my spirit to the fore
Oh lowest low, oh bed made
Even the shadow has its shade
It’s womb was a black hole
Nay a white hole
That expels rather than impels
The egg looked like a moon
Adrift beyond the orbits
A solar system trembled
When the egg cracked
And the great serpent silvered
Into the darkness
As a baby it coiled
Round the rings of Saturn
And struck at meteors
Fully grown it dislocated its jaw
And swallowed the sun
The luminous lump moved through its body
Shinning light between its scales
Once the sun had been digested,
The snake hissed solar flares
Into the empty regions of space
Its shed skin is often mistaken
For a new constellation
To this day, it glows burning white
And leaves a glittering trail
Through the universe
