Shining City

I’ve given you the brightest corner of my heart,

Surrendered my heart to God,

Surrendered you,

I had to.

My blood, my voice, my flower, my melody,

A kind of soul symmetry,

My Gemini,

You know me.

You stop me with a sigh, a single stray tear,

You alter rotation, orbit,

You freeze time,

Stay with me.

The fading leaves, the falling trees—silent sky,

There is still life in this place,

The dark planet,

Don’t lose faith.

Find your strength in the Indefatigueable,

Hidden in your heart—a map,

A Roman road,

Shining city.

You will walk through the desert, and in your wake,

Glittering pools of water,

Incandescence,

Crystal rain.

You will move from strength to strength,

Narrow way to golden courts,

The shield, the sun,

The glory.
