i cannot wait for you to come back down
sometimes i wish i knew the date
when i get to see your crown
but until then i am content to wait

the first time you came
the entire world changed
since the strongest are now the lame
and heaven is no longer out of our range

i was an orphan
and you said i was your son
i ran and you pursued me with loving contortions
until i stopped running and believed it was done

while i am still in-between two lives
you charged me with bringing in your reign
by showing how to make our souls arise
since when you've tasted joy nothing is the same.
