Consciousness

CONSCIOUSNESS

I was born from the melted iron
Which it taste cannot be known
As fearless as the beast
And mighty as the wind.

I was born from the light
Which sight cannot been match
As calm as the sea
And fragile like air.

I was born from the hottest pit
Many cries which never heard
Unheard song which never hurt
And memories which make me thee.

From the mountain which soar high
And the sweat, and moaning high
For the form of me which never seize
And dungeon deep beneath thee.

Many mistake like kid wears slippers
An unsong rhythm when the heart is high
For my eyes show what my mind bind
And in heart, my delight.

I've count the stars when the sun is up
And spread my clothes when night falls
For I wait beyond mind shore
And drink it best, in its purest form.

I've seen beyond my mind eyes
Where nature start the sands of time
For dream comes when consciousness start
And from where man can tap.
