In This Divide - Azam Ali

Strayed into myself

To find this sort of faint star

That shone even in this divide

Of where I’d come to be displaced

But maybe here, where time is fleeting

I’ll try to fly, but not to stray

Cause we face the tides

Of will and divine

Though we mystify

What we flee and feel today

Strained by overgrown dreams

Rooted in disillusionment

But in the hour fate flaws

I know I’m not alone

And fall, it’s the way I know

And fall, it’s the way I’ll grow

Cause we face the tides

Of will and divine

Though we mystify

What we flee and feel today

And why, when there’s a way

Above the fire that fears of drought fill

Do I crawl
