Invisible darkness reaches I deny my oubliette again, again, it starts to fade.
As I rise I can't allow this my scars to be ignored. I have them they have me. Upon my body they represent my strength my tattooed of pain. I am unleashed. I am held by no chain, yet I do not fly. I am caged in refrain.
It isn't that I lost the plot, no.
Nor is it that I cannot see the forest from the trees, not blind as far as I can see.
What is the truth, and what I have come to know. The speed in which you are buried in darkness doesn't reflect the speed in your understanding the light.
I know there is a love that holds me dear. 1 that is born of patience 1 I would be lost without.
She could take me deeper, she is the reason that ever have gained flight. Yet her I stay conditioned for failure. I expect it like a noose wrapped around my neck. Every time I get a start the ground below chomps at my feet. Back into the hole, I fail.
So what shall I do? Expect the darkness, or dare to try again? Rise along side. Become the mean I was always meant to be. I shall not deny my dear. She wishes me to be on a rise we both couldn't deny.
If I fail the darkness will come, I make that deal. Although I also know darkness isn't something to fear. Only if you can never escape, she has given me the fuel to ignite my fire. I will not step into the sky without knowing the depth below calls my name.
For if I miss this opportunity to fly there will not be another, not like this.
So I take a deep breath upon bated breath I stretch my wings. I find they flow with the light.
I feel an updraft, I know she will be joyful to see my flight.
For I don't wish to give a ring, I wish to make a symbol for her to keep. As I wish she wears it in pride. For the one I make will not be the biggest, it will not be the highest in ganger, opulence, or elegant taste. It will be the only one I forge for her this lifetime. In this purpose I wish her to wear it in pride. For what it represents fearless love, a reflection of sacred trust, and the embodiment of our truth.
Forever, Ever, and Evermore,
Aaron Baker
