The day the earth stood still

Two sides of a mirror
Reflecting on the moment,
Reflecting on the self.

Side 1: Does my imposition poison my reason?
Side 2: Am I so afraid of living a lie that in the meantime I have forgotten to live?

Struggling to find the eternal It in "It Is."

	Knowing only all Is none  |  Knowing only all Is one

Thrown into the unknown unfathomable,
The earth stood still, at a loss for shelter.
Found the question of belief,
Found the question of faith.

			Shattered 
				Fragments  of  

fear,panic,care,abandon,humility,pain,doubt,surrender,hope,fear,fear,fear…

Through the burning, spinning, friction of Hell;
Through the toils of Atlas - the world weighing heavily on my shoulders;
Through the pain and humility of Christ's crucifixion;
Through the merging of friends - body and mind - to face a common enemy:
		The fall into man's abysmal depths.
			I knew the mirror must be smashed,
			And that I must roll in its shards.
	Found belief in belief,
	Found faith in faith;
	And a touch of omnipotance,
	Forged through friendship,
	Realized that one's love
	Must encompass one's torture
	To bring laughter once again,
	The day the earth stood still.
