Fade Away

Fade Away

Just like the grass 
that withers under the Sun
terrified by His wrath.
Like the water 
the dries up
humilated by all it had not done.
Just like snow
melting under its own wait
will you too fade away?

When the flowers bloom
not knowing it is its doom
will you too fade a way.
When the wind blows the dust
under its mighty gust
will you too fade away?

Will you stand or take flight
like a bird hounded by its prey.
Will you walk in the light
or cower meanacingly in the night?
Will your beauty perish
under the pummeling of all the ugly in the world?

Will you stay?
Or will you fade away?
