Could be better but its what I feel

OUTFIT 2: INSPIRED BY A DREAM

1. 
   

SINCE THE END TO THE BEGINNING OF TIME

I EXIST

MY HAIR IS A RIVER RESTORING MARSHLAND AND MOUNTAINS

FROM BARREN PLAINS TO LUSH GREEN,

PALM DATES AND FLOWERS BLOOMING AS THE CHILDREN ARE RUNNING

THROUGH OUR GARDEN OF EDEN

MY SKIN IS MOONLIGHT AND SUNLIGHT

NAKED BAKED IN GOLD

I AM

FREE OF MORTAL IDENTITY

YET STILL ME ENTIRELY

I WISH YOU COULD ACCEPT MY NATURE

OR THAT YOU LOVE ME LIKE I LOVE YOU

BUT I HAVE AWOKEN A THOUSAND EYES

HUMANS ARE LOST AND IGNORANCE BREEDS DEATH

THUS I WAS SHOT

CONTINUE

MAY EVERYTHING CONTINUE TO ROT

2.

TAKE MY EYES

TAKE MY MIND

TAKE MY VOICE

TAKE UNTIL I AM REDUCED TO ATOMS

I WILL RIP MY HEART OUT AND GIVE IT TO YOU

OUTFIT 1: MY LOVE LETTER TO THE DIASPORA

RED IS THE COLOR OF OUR SUFFERING AND OUR SWORD

DEEP LIKE THE BLOOD WHICH SPILLS AND BINDS US ALL

BLACK IS THE COLOR OF OUR BATTLES,

DARK LIKE OUR HAIR AND EYES

WHITE IS THE COLOR OF OUR DEEDS

PURE AND BRIGHT LIKE STARS AND RICE

GREEN IS THE COLOR OF OUR LANDS

ABUNDANT LIKE CHILDREN SHOULD BE

MOTHER

ALWAYS MISCARRYING

YOUR SCREAMS PIERCE THE ENDS OF TIME

BUT TO THEM IT SOUNDS LIKE DUST

YOUR DREAMS BECOME ASHES

THAT COULD BIRTH A PHOENIX ANEW

DEATHLESS BEINGS AS ARE WE

TEARS COULD FORM RIVERS

FROM YOUR TEARS TO MY CHEEK

FROM MY TIGRIS TO THE EUPHRATES

FROM THE RIVER TO THE SEA

AND WHEREVER THE SEA FLOWS

O EVERY CORNER OF THIS PLANET

MARSHES, MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS

WE WILL ALL BE FREE

ONLY LOVE AND NATURE CAN PREVAIL

ETERNALLY
