~a Mouses Journey~ Poem by E Nigma

~a Mouses Journey~



Create this song, lonesome maestro
Mice without a home to call
Live in dark holes for forever

Prisoners in a war of evolution
The cat so crafty plays on a solution

Take this share and live in peace
Should you venture I shall feast

Rose of Sharon, hold my caterpillar
Hope that I can make it
Past the jaws that quiver
Past the things that slither

In times past we gathered
Ran for absolution, prayed for revolution
Traded our holes for halves
Gave our lives for laughs

And at last I've darkened the map
Ran enough to know there's nothing left
Cared enough to show, rose the tears I wept

Maze within this matrix
I'm amazed how far I made it

Watched the fish beguile the fisher
Saw the hunter steal his moment
Watched the lion protect his family
But if only for a second

Watched the day conquer the night
Saw the fight the knight took over
Watched the order brought to chaos
And rejection called disorder

Here alone I sit, these scenes that fill my head
Oh, how my crown is really heavy
How this life is really death
How this death is pretty empty

Like the hole inside my chest
Like the home, a hole I lived in
Until there was nothing left
But the peace, I found a piece, within this chaos
