Ortus - Voices From The Fuselage

Above translucent skin

I venture to find you

We opt for peace — it never works out

Discrepancies lead us to inhabit doubt

I’ll coincide if it means I can learn

To understand what I cannot discern

How I long for a rapid escape

I need more than familiar face

Do I already know the ground I roam?

(Pay witness to memories rising from words on a page)

I could be wrong

(My youth is a dove that cries to be freed from its cage)

We risk it all

(In the hope that we find satisfaction at a later stage)

Oh how we were wrong

We are the modern age
