    Poem Commentary

    This is a call to my Christianity. Sometimes we know we are doing the wrong thing, but we find it hard to stop doing it. We know we are in fault and we know that we can change it, but sometimes we don't. We can also see that this world is messed up and people value things that are really not that important over other people's lives...

    Off-road
    when I look inside myself
    and the shadows that invade me
    I can only hope to hear
    distant chants from somewhere near me
    is that your voice?
    is that you calling?
    is that your light,
    that vanished all dark things within me?
    and the echoes of my sight
    are like dark and fuzzy green spots
    in my solitude inside
    that is growing like a soundwave
    is that your voice?
    are you still calling?
    is that your light,
    that wants to show me a better place?
    is that your word?
    the one they're following?
    are they aware
    of the purgatory that this is?
    is that your voice
    the one they're following
    are they aware
    of the purgatory that this is?
    when I look inside myself
    and the shadows that invade me
    I can only hope to hear
    distant chants from somewhere near me
                 ~o~
    is that your voice?
    is that you calling?
    is that your light,
    that vanished all dark things within me?
                 ~o~
    and the echoes of my sight
    are like dark and fuzzy green spots
    in my solitude inside
    that is growing like a soundwave
                 ~o~
    is that your voice?
    are you still calling?
    is that your light,
    that wants to show me a better place?
                 ~o~
    is that your word?
    the one they're following?
    are they aware
    of the purgatory that this is?
                 ~o~
    is that your voice
    the one they're following
    are they aware
    of the purgatory that this is?
