Switch Plate

Switch Plate 12/8/2014

Somewhere else

It has already happened

The switch was flipped

And it is done. 

In the end

Just as in the beginning

The battle has already been fought

And won. 

We live it through

Just as we must

Tested by trials

And purified by fire.

The days drag by

And we grow weary

Trapped in a game

Of spiritual attrition. 

The future is here

And only cloaked from view

As we await to see

What we already know. 

But even if

All of this is true

We still must go on

And do what we can.

Let them all run

As they dive deep and fast

Because they have swallowed the hook

And will die in the end.

If you cross a river

You can always cross it back

And in the end

Everyone returns

To who they always were. 

Live it through

And live it well

As we push on through

And watch it

All fall down.
