The fear that was too great for you then
Has not overcome you now?
This love that was too great for you then
Has overcome me now.
It festers transformed by your once fear
Into a pain which twists, transfixed, and seers.
This pain is power...
This power is mine,
Power to give this world what we all deserve,
Power beyond design.
I'll ignore the futility of culture's demands,
Bringing all to death in one last stand.
None will have the fertility of their lover's hands.
You're no more than fatality or by GOD I'll be damned!
I fester unborn in our love's tears,
Rip through and strain with this betwixt your ears.
This pain is power!
This power is mine.
Power to live alone - what you will reserve.
Power beyond design.
