twas

it came upon
that it twas
it twas
upon a lonely road
beyond the edge
before the fall
where just before
the eye of the storm
in the paused moments of chaos
they exist there
beaten and bound
to a logic
romanticized
for it twas
it twas
that in this space
where no one else
could crowd
that they did find
in the pause of
the world round
themselves
stricken naked
from emotion
and ego
and free of
authoritative thought
did birth a conciseness
of their own
and with determined
admiration
it twas, it twas
that they allowed
and into the bluffs
they gave
their last breath
for just this moment
of undefinable truth
and raw passion
as the sky's mouth opened
and it's screams raged
it twas
oh, how it twas
they discovered love
