Beyond the Curtain

still waiting to take
that long thought of vow
of silence

until that day only god
can measure whats left in
me to say

once was told in a vision
the last to speak shall have
been the first to have heard
gods word

as my brother fears the approach
of his own demise
i arrive and remind the world of
our immortal essence

like the world is just
an act
and these aren't our real lives
the real show lies
beyond the curtain
